道瓊工業指數也下跌 1.5%，跌破 34,000 點。對全球經濟健康狀況的擔憂導致了市場的負面走勢。代表市場更廣泛的標準普爾 500 指數下跌 1.8%，收在 4,200 點下方。

Notable decliners in the technology sector included Apple, which fell by 3.4%, and Amazon, which lost 4.5%. Other major companies, such as Tesla and Google, also experienced significant losses.

科技股跌幅顯著的包括蘋果(Apple)，下跌3.4%，亞馬遜(Amazon)下跌4.5%。特斯拉和谷歌等其他大公司也遭受了重大損失。
