-11.86% open $125.99

DigitalOcean slid to $111.05 under steady selling that lasted the full session, with sellers in control from the opening bell.

A nearly 12% single-day loss erases roughly a tenth of the company's market value in hours. Shareholders reassessing positions and buyers weighing an entry point both have to act on this now.

The slide ground lower through multiple trading intervals without a meaningful recovery. That persistent selling points to broad conviction among those exiting rather than a reaction to one headline.

The level to track from here is the $125.99 open. Reclaiming that price would signal buyers stepped back in with confidence.
