Tech stocks played a leading role in a global market downturn on Wednesday as Tokyo's benchmark Nikkei 225 index dipped over 4 percent amidst heavy sell-offs in Big Tech shares.
The decline mirrored sentiment on Wall Street, where recent tech-driven gains reversed. SoftBank and Samsung recorded significant losses as concerns mounted over artificial intelligence investments.
Investors also faced uncertainties with the lack of economic data due to a U.S. government shutdown, casting doubt on market direction amid upcoming corporate earnings reports.
