The three main reasons for the sharp decline in the markets:


• Fed and Interest Rate Expectations:
The very strong non-farm payroll data in the US triggered fears that "the Fed will delay interest rate cuts." This strengthened the dollar index while hitting risky assets like (stocks and cryptocurrencies).
• Cryptocurrency Liquidation Wave:
Bitcoin losing the critical $70,000 support led to the liquidation of billions of dollars in leveraged trades. This situation deepened selling pressure with a snowball effect.
• Geopolitics and Inflation:
Tensions in the Middle East pushing oil prices higher fueled concerns that inflation will not decrease, prompting investors to move into cash.
In short: A combination of a strong dollar, high interest rate expectations, and technical breakouts has initiated a "panic selling" period in the markets.
