Retail traders dump the most stocks in single day since Covid selloff

Retail traders sold the most stocks in a single day since the Covid selloff, according to CNBC, as the market's sharp downturn rattled individual investors. The selling came during a steep tech-led slide that pushed the Nasdaq into correction territory and wiped out trillions in market value. The surge in retail selling marks a notable shift, since small investors have often bought the dip in recent years. The data point captures how far sentiment has swung in a single session, with everyday traders heading for the exits alongside professional money. Source: CNBC, November 5, 2026.
