DeepSeek Is Not What the Market Fears

With the emergence of DeepSeek, tech stocks have generally dropped by 6% over these few short days across all US indices, but from the peak in late November to December, we saw a much more massive drop among all of them.

The Russell 2000, representing small and medium-sized enterprises in the U.S., declined by 12%,

What triggered this sell-off in the tech giants (Nasdaq), the old guards (Dow Jones), the suite of blue-chip stocks (S&P 500), and the medium-sized firms (Russell 2000)?

Markets are inter-connected. What should we be looking out for, and how should we navigate if the market break below this recent all-time low?
