Markets are pricing at least 100 bps of rate cuts this year. Losses in technology stocks also pressured Japanese markets, with major chipmakers falling in tandem with their Wall Street peers.Risk Disclosure: Trading in financial instruments and/or cryptocurrencies involves high risks including the risk of losing some, or all, of your investment amount, and may not be suitable for all investors.
