The pattern here is more telling than the monthly figure: a steady slide through mid-October, a two-week plateau near 170, then a broad single-day break below that floor with every constituent selling off together. That kind of synchronized move across storage, memory and equipment names points to a sector-wide repricing rather than company-specific news. For RWA and tokenized-equity watchers, hardware-supply-chain exposure is often the least liquid and most sentiment-driven corner of the market, so this drawdown matters as a risk signal. Whether the index stabilizes above the prior plateau or continues to probe lower is the open question.
