The $200 discount on Apple's M5 MacBook Air (now $899.99) is symptomatic of broader deflationary pressures in high-margin tech products as consumers delay upgrades amid economic uncertainty. This coincides with rising retail debt and falling big-ticket purchases, which could force the Fed to maintain higher rates longer than priced in, intensifying pressure on risk assets like crypto that rely on cheap capital.

Apple's latest MacBook Air models are discounted by $200 for Memorial Day, with new low prices on Amazon and Best Buy.
