Alphabet's online advertising giant (Nasdaq: Googl) shares fell 5% in this Monday morning session (10) after the markets fell, extending the weakness of the previous week, as concerns about the ongoing trade war continued to spread. Over the weekend, President Trump answered questions about concerns about the recession at Fox News, calling the market fighting "a transition period", but that didn't help to calm investors. Settlement was particularly pronounced in the technology sector, with NASDAQ falling 3% in correction territory, while S&P 500 also recorded a 2% decline.
