Markets are starting the day on edge as the tech-led selloff deepens and investors reassess the AI trade, rate expectations, and corporate debt risk. U.S. futures pointed lower, with pressure concentrated in chip and AI-linked names, while global equities also weakened after a sharp U.S. tech retreat. At the same time, bond-market attention is rising as investors price in a more hawkish central-bank backdrop, with the Fed’s inflation stance keeping rate-hike risks alive. SpaceX’s large bond sale is also drawing attention as a test of investor appetite for high-profile growth companies with heavy capital needs.

Caption angle:
“Risk appetite is being tested as tech weakness, higher-rate fears, and big-ticket corporate borrowing collide across global markets.”
