US OPEN: Wall street extends declines! 📉

Today's session on Wall Street clearly begins under the influence of sellers. Futures contracts on the Nasdaq 100 index were losing nearly 1% before the opening, signaling a nervous start to the day. After yesterday's gains, the American market may be entering a correction phase. The US100 contracts are losing the most. Dow and S&P500 are down about 1%, while Russel 2000 is performing the best, sliding down by about 0.6%.
At the start of trading, the main indices open with clear declines, reflecting growing tensions on many fronts. Investors are reacting to the escalation of the trade war with China. Additionally, the worsening situation in the financial system, with increasing volatility in the debt market and liquidity concerns, intensifies the selling pressure. All this is compounded by the ongoing federal government shutdown, which has been destabilizing the situation for several days and testing the market's resilience to risk.

The declines are most affecting the IT sector and related industries. Following them, the financial sector is falling the most. Slightly better, but still in the negative, are healthcare and the broadly defined industry. Retailers can boast a slight increase.

Macroeconomic Data:

Due to the administrative paralysis, macroeconomic data is still not being published, which limits investors' ability to assess the economy's condition.
The market's attention is therefore drawn to the speeches of FOMC members. Michelle Bowman has already finished her speech, adding nothing new beyond what the market had already priced in.
Later in the day, investors are waiting for Jerome Powell's speech, which may set the tone for the entire week.
After him, Andrew Bailey, Susan Walley, and Austan Collins will also speak. Each of these speeches may impact short-term sentiments and expectations regarding Fed policy.

The price on the index, without corrections, broke both growth channel limits, the EMA25 average, and the FIBO 23.6 level. The declines were only stopped around the EMA100 and FIBO 50 level. Currently, the rate is between FIBO 38.2 and 50 levels. Maintaining resistance is essential to avoid deepening the correction towards the 6500 level. However, if buyers want to regain initiative, it is necessary to overcome the FIBO 38.2 level.
