New York — The S&P 500 and the Dow slumped on Wednesday to their lowest levels since late September, as coronavirus cases climbed globally and investors also worried about the possibility of a contested US presidential election next week.
“Obviously the virus is out of control. It's spiking, it's bad,” said Eric Kuby, chief investment officer at North Star Investment Management in Chicago. “The concept that ... it’s going to disappear is just a faulty assumption.” Democratic challenger Joe Biden leads President Donald Trump nationally by 10 percentage points, according to the Reuters/Ipsos poll, but the competition is tighter in swing states, which will decide the victor.
Before the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 792.7 points, or 2.89%, to 26,670.49. The S&P 500 lost 96.32 points, or 2.84%, to 3,294.36 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 339.66 points, or 2.97%, to 11,091.70.
