Natera sold off steadily through regular trading hours, closing near $400.94.

Roughly $4 billion was erased from the company's market value in a single session, and the pace of the decline points to sustained selling pressure.

The $400 level now becomes the key number to follow. A stock that closes convincingly below that mark after a move of this size often invites a fresh round of sellers who treat round numbers as reference points.

Keep an eye on how the stock behaves at that threshold, since the $429.01 open now acts as overhead resistance on any recovery attempt.
