Nikkei falls 4.03% into correction on tech selloff

Japan's Nikkei 225 fell 4.03% to 64,141.12 on July 17, Reuters reported, entering a correction — a 10% fall from a recent high. Losses hit 6.18% during the day. A selloff in tech shares, worsened by Middle East conflict, drove the fall. For savers, it shows how crowded chip stocks can spread global shocks fast.
