the list of S&P’S 500 tech stocks

Almost all the high growth stocks were the first to fall

Historically, when interest rates rise and borrowing costs go up, investors pull out money from the riskier parts of the economy. High growth companies and tech stocks are the first to see their stocks fall.

This time is no different. The S&P 500’s worst stock performer to date is Netflix, which is down 60%. Followed by Meta, Paypal and Nvidia.

The second-worst performer is Etsy, the online marketplace for art and craft from artisans, which is down almost 65%.
