NASDAQ 100 Index

US tech stocks bounced off their lows overnight to finish down 1.2%, after being down ~2% at the lows, extending the pullback to 7.2%, a very similar move to the ASX200. Stocks may have retreated again on Tuesday, with tech shares continuing to retreat on concerns about valuations of AI, but buyers of “risk” returned into weakness with Bitcoin bouncing ~4% after briefly trading below $US90,000, a sign of renewed risk-taking by investors.
