On 14 November 2025, global equity markets slid as a sharp tech sector correction and weak Chinese economic signals spooked investors. In the UK, the FTSE 100 fell 1.1%, while in Asia Japan’s Nikkei 225 dropped 1.8% and South Korea’s KOSPI plunged 2.6%. Key US tech names, including Nvidia Corporation (-3.6%), triggered broader risk-off flows. Investors cited China’s record-low fixed-asset investment and concerns the tech run-up may have outpaced fundamentals. With risk appetite fading, emerging-market flows and Asian currencies may come under pressure.
