After the session's midpoint on Friday, September E-mini S&P 500 Index futures started to move down as the benchmark index was hampered by a poor performance in the technology sector. Poor results by Twitter and Snap were the main drivers of the sell-off, which sparked a wave of selling in social media companies.


September E-mini S&P 500 Index futures are now trading at 3949.00, down 52.25 or 1.31 percent, as of 17:53 GMT. The S&P 500 Trust ETF (SPY) is down $5.49 or 1.38 percent, trading at $393.30.


Early in the morning, the market suffered from Twitter and Snap's dismal quarterly sales. By mid-session, Twitter was down 1.2 percent, and Snap's shares had fallen about 40%.


Meta Platform Inc. and Alphabet Inc., two industry leaders in online advertising, saw their shares fall by 7.5% and 5.6%, respectively, hurting the NASDAQ.


According to Reuters, a poll released on Friday revealed that U.S. business activity fell in July for the first time in almost two years, adding to worries about an economy that is being stymied by high inflation, increasing interest rates, and declining consumer confidence.
