The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) fell 314.2 points, or 3.94%, last week to finish at an eight-month low of 7,667.8 points.
The ASX 200's positive trajectory for the week came to an abrupt end on Wednesday after the US revealed its reciprocal tariffs.
Uncertainty over how the reciprocal US tariffs, which go on top of other existing tariffs, would impact ASX shares caused a three-day rout.
Based on closing values, selling pressure pushed the ASX 200 into an official market correction, down 10.38% from its 14 February record.
Only one ASX 200 market sector shone through the sea of red last week.
That was the consumer staples sector, which rose by 2.53%.
It was the only ASX 200 sector to finish in the green last week.
At the opposite end of the scale, the energy sector was trashed, diving 13.16%, while technology lost 8.31%, and materials fell 7.08%.
