The US market has experienced a significant sell-off, erasing $2 trillion in value as investors reassess growth prospects and company earnings. Stock markets worldwide have plunged, with global manufacturers leading the declines. Major names such as Nike, Apple, Amazon, and Starbucks have suffered double-digit losses, reflecting widespread uncertainty. Interest rates have fallen to their lowest level since October, while oil prices have retreated amid fears of a global recession. Closer to home, futures indicate further declines for the ASX 200, though the Australian dollar has shown resilience despite the broader market downturn.
