3 Top Tech Stocks That Are Down More Than Bitcoin and Ethereum
Cryptocurrency has a reputation for both explosive growth and cripplingly dangerous volatility. In many ways, the U.S. stock market sell-off has been much more volatile. The Nasdaq's decline isn't representative of the drawdowns we've seen in individual large-cap and small-cap stocks. As an example, PayPal Holdings (NASDAQ: PYPL), Shopify (NASDAQ: SHOP), and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: FB) are all down more from their 52-week highs than Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) or Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH). Here's the case for buying each tech stock now, as well as how volatility could impact your investments going forward.
