Why is the sell off happening like this?

I’m starting to think markets have become two volatile and too much has been introduced to the market (0DTE options and such) that cause so much market volatility. Just a person opinion, the market should never lose 5% in a single day, much less 3 days in a row.

How can institutions just continually dump equities at this rate? The US is the biggest customer in the world, is there real fear that other countries will stop trading with the US over these tariffs? Just seems like this downturn is so trivial when economic fundamentals (jobs report, inflation) seem to be improving, or at the least stabilizing.
