Lost positions over night for top keywords

Last week my website traffic suddenly dropped 20% from google. When I looked at why it appears that many of the top keywords lost rank all at once. On Monday they were fine on Tuesday they fell. They fell somewhere between 1-3 spots.

A few of my newer and lower ranking posts slightly grew. And most of my middle preforming posts stayed the same.

Yesterday it appeared it appeared to rebound a little, but still about 12% down.

I cannot figure out what caused this. This happened a week or so after Google said their update was finished. I didn’t change anything on my site. I checked for errors and found now. My CWV is passing except LCP on mobile is yellow (2.8 seconds).

Any idea what would cause a site to suddenly drop rankings on many keywords overnight? Or how I can diagnose this? I’ve read all the articles I can find, but none so far has helped.
