Investor anxiety intensified Tuesday as losses in major tech names and a continued crypto selloff pushed market volatility to its highest levels in a month. Analysts cited valuation pressures and growing uncertainty around future Fed actions as key drivers behind the sharp reversal. Chipmakers, AI leaders, and digital assets all came under renewed selling pressure.
While some see the pullback as a healthy reset, the shift in sentiment suggests investors are bracing for extended turbulence. With the VIX jumping and liquidity conditions tightening, the rally in risk assets may be entering a more cautious phase.

Investor Sentiment
Investors are growing wary of stretched valuations and concentrated leadership within tech and crypto. Even modest disappointments are now sparking outsized moves, underscoring how fragile confidence has become in some of the market’s most speculative segments.
If the current volatility persists, many expect a rotation into more defensive names while traders look for confirmation that macro data and earnings can support current prices. Until then, the path forward may be choppy.
