Twilio experienced a 12% decline last week, coinciding with significant market volatility driven by escalating global trade tensions. This turmoil affected major indices, with tech-heavy stocks like Twilio feeling the impact as investors faced uncertainty. While the Nasdaq Composite entered bear market territory, the broader market's 5.6% drop indicates widespread concerns about potential economic repercussions from new tariffs. As the broader market grapples with these implications, Twilio's performance can be seen as a reflection of investor caution within the technology sector, which has been sensitive to policy shifts impacting global trade and economic outlooks.
