  • Apple and Nvidia's stock tumble this week is unprecedented, as the tech sector as a whole has been enjoying a steady incline this year.

  • The tech sector relies heavily on the success of these two titans, as Apple and Nvidia make up two-thirds of the index’s gain. So, one bad apple can definitely spoil the bunch - or, in this case, a $250 billion loss.
