US stock market crash today: By Monday’s session, the Nasdaq 100 had extended its decline to about 1.6% , while the S&P 500 had lost nearly $700 billion in market value during the day.
The stock moves show where the pressure is concentrated. Meta fell 3.83%, AMD dropped 3.14% and Micron declined 2.92% . Dell was down about 3.5% and Oracle lost 2.45%. Even the largest technology names were lower, with Google down 1.08%, Microsoft 1.31% and Amazon 1.41%.
Investors are selling across several parts of the technology market at once.
Bloodbath in the US stock market: Why are Google, Amazon and Microsoft stocks falling today?
The weakness in the megacaps comes as the broader market absorbs a sharp rise in borrowing costs. The 10-year Treasury yield was around 5.26% , while the 30-year yield reached about 5.57%.
When Treasury yields rise, those future earnings are discounted at a higher rate. The effect can be particularly visible in expensive growth stocks.
Monday's selling therefore comes after a week in which technology shares had already benefited from strong momentum. The Nasdaq had gained roughly 2.1% in the previous week, according to the supplied market data.
Why are Meta, AMD and Micron falling more sharply?
The semiconductor names are taking some of the hardest hits. AMD was down 3.14% and Micron 2.92% , while the broader technology decline also pulled down other chip and AI-related companies.
These stocks have become closely tied to the market's expectations for artificial intelligence spending. That makes them sensitive not only to company-specific news, but also to changes in interest rates and investor appetite for growth stocks.
Meta's 3.83% decline stands out for a different reason. It shows that the selling is reaching beyond chipmakers. Oracle, another company heavily associated with the AI infrastructure buildout, was down 2.45%.
What is happening across the wider US stock market?
The major indexes were all lower in the latest snapshot. The Dow Jones fell 0.75%, the S&P 500 declined 0.86% and the Nasdaq dropped 1.00% .
The Nasdaq's larger decline reflects its heavier exposure to technology stocks. The S&P 500 is broader, so its move was less severe even though many of its largest constituents were under pressure.
There was also a striking exception: Nvidia rose 2.34% in the supplied data, after the company announced an additional $150 billion authorization for share repurchases, taking its total authorization to $235 billion. That helped Nvidia buck the broader weakness in major technology stocks.
Oil is another piece of the market's calculation. WTI crude was around $95.21 a barrel , up 3.03%, while Brent crude stood near $107.40 , up 2.95%, in the supplied market snapshot.
Higher oil prices matter because they can feed into inflation and raise operating costs across the economy. Investors are also watching what sustained energy costs could mean for interest rates.
That connection is already visible in the bond market. Recent market data showed the 10-year Treasury yield reaching its highest level since 2007, while the 30-year yield touched levels not seen since 2004.
Google, Microsoft and Amazon are each down more than 1%. Meta, AMD and Micron are down close to 3% or more. Oracle has also fallen sharply. At the same time, the major indexes are lower and the S&P 500 has lost hundreds of billions of dollars in market value.
That combination points to a market reassessing risk across technology rather than simply reacting to one company's earnings or announcement.
Just last week, falling oil prices and easing yields helped push the Nasdaq higher. On Monday, the same two market variables moved in the opposite direction, and technology stocks felt the difference.
