European Market View
U.S. stocks tumbled as the rotation away from super-charged technology shares picked up pace. The Nasdaq 100 lost more than 5%, its biggest fall since March, having gained in 11 of 13 sessions prior despite cries of stretched valuations. The rout was even more brutal in the options market.

The latest statistics suggest companies continue to hire at a more moderate pace than immediately following the lifting of business lockdowns months ago.
U.S.-China relations remain on the radar, with President Xi Jinping setting a combative tone in latest remarks.
