Just last week, Netflix share prices surged as much as 15 percent on earnings. The company met revenue estimates and reported almost 7 million new subscribers. Netflix stock has now fallen below pre-earnings prices.

The S&P 500 technology sub-sector was also down as much as 2 percent on Wednesday.
