U.S. Stocks 

Fundamental Analysis: 

U.S. stocks closed sharply lower yesterday, 26th April 2022, with the Nasdaq closing at its lowest level since December 2020, as investors worried about slowing global economic growth and a more aggressive Federal Reserve.

Electric car maker, Tesla plunged 12% as investors worried that its chief executive Elon Musk might sell some of his shares to finance the $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, announced Monday (25th April 2022).

During this interval, Tesla was the stock that caused the biggest drag on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes. The technology-dominated Nasdaq posted its biggest one-day drop since September 2008 and is now down 22% from its record high set in November.

Also, previously highly sought-after growth stocks have been hit hard in recent weeks, with investors worried about the impact of rising interest rates on their future earnings.
