WALL STREET FEAR GAUGE SURGES 48% IN BIGGEST SPIKE SINCE LIBERATION DAY
The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) jumped as much as 48%, marking its largest percentage surge since April 4, 2025, when Trump's sweeping tariff announcements triggered a market meltdown.
The spike comes as investors aggressively unwind popular stock market trades amid a sharp technology-led selloff.
Despite the dramatic increase, the VIX remains below 25, still lower than levels reached during the early stages of the Iran war and well below its post-Liberation Day peaks.

BITCOIN PLUNGES BELOW $76,000 AS TECH SELLOFF SPARKS CRYPTO ROUT
Bitcoin fell as much as 5.8% to a seven-week low, dropping below $76,000 as Wall Street's technology selloff spread to cryptocurrencies.
