The Nasdaq 100 (NDX) endured significant volatility in March 2026, driven primarily by escalating U.S.-Israel tensions with Iran that spiked oil prices, stoked inflation fears, and triggered a risk-off selloff, pushing the index into correction territory (down over 10% from peaks) by March 27. Trading between a monthly high near 25,059 early on and lows of 22,841 on March 30, NDX closed March 31 at 23,199—up 3.43% that day but capping a sharply negative monthly return and YTD performance of -9.09%. Tech-heavy composition amplified losses amid AI investment fatigue, with trader consensus reflecting macro headwinds. Key watches include April CPI, Q1 earnings season, and Nasdaq-100 methodology updates effective May 1.
