Market Analysis

• Sector Impact: The across-the-board decline suggests broad sell-off pressure rather than sector-specific issues.

• Liquidity: Higher-than-average trading volume indicates panic selling rather than orderly profit-taking.

• Technical Outlook: All indices breached key support levels, signaling potential further downside risk.
