The concerns over continuing supply chain disruptions, the Federal Reserve's tighter monetary policy to combat 40-year high inflation, and a potential slowdown in economic growth have dampened investor sentiment and triggered a broad equity market sell-off. Furthermore, the recent tech rout has dragged the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite index down to record its worst monthly performance in April since 2008.

Given their weak financials, history of enormous losses, and bleak growth attributes, hard-hit tech stocks are expected to remain under severe pressure in the near term.
