Is the Bubble Bursting? Tech, Crypto, Silver Face Sharp Declines

  • Global financial markets are under pressure, with technology stocks, cryptocurrencies, and precious metals experiencing sharp declines.
  • Major US indices like the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow Jones have fallen, with the tech sector bearing the brunt of the sell-off.
  • The global crypto market has lost nearly $2 trillion since its October 2025 peak, with Bitcoin and Ethereum showing high volatility.
  • Silver prices have seen a sharp pullback, with India’s MCX prices falling 6% on Friday and nearly 16% weekly.
  • The synchronized decline reflects a broader 'risk-off' sentiment driven by rising interest rates, a strong US dollar, and concerns over earnings.
