Fact Check
Multiple authoritative Nasdaq market reports directly describe the daily performance of the Nasdaq 100 index, with explicit mention of a decline consistent with the 1.3% figure in the statement. These sources are highly relevant as they originate from Nasdaq itself, providing primary market data and live reporting. The language and numbers are aligned between the articles, indicating consistency across independent reports on the same day's activity. There are no indications from credible sources that contradict the claim. While other sources such as CNBC provide related information on broader or composite indices, the primary market summaries from Nasdaq confirm both the direction (decline) and approximate magnitude (around 1.3%) for that day. The slight margin between the stated percentage and possible exact reported figure is within typical rounding differences in market coverage, thus reinforcing the likelihood that the statement is accurate.
