Friday marked a turbulent turn in global financial markets. The Nasdaq officially slipped into bear territory, rattled by escalating US-China trade tensions and hawkish commentary from Fed Chair Jerome Powell.

No sector was spared. Energy and tech stocks led the downward spiral, while China’s retaliatory tariffs and President Trump’s firm stance on the trade deficit triggered a widespread sell-off across global equities.
