A global flight from risk assets continued on Wednesday after fears about the US economy and a retreat from big tech triggered a sharp decline in US stocks. Europe’s STOXX 600 index dropped 0.9% with technology stocks such as ASML Holding taking the biggest losses. S&P 500 futures pulled back 0.5% after the gauge suffered its worst day since the Aug. 5 market meltdown. Traders are now bracing for further volatility as they await Wednesday's US job openings report. In geopolitics, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is sticking to his hard-line approach on Hamas, in the face of mass protests at home over the killing of six hostages and the suspension of some British arms licenses.
