The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 224.09 points, or 0.68 per cent, at the open to 32,773.88.
The S&P 500 opened lower by 18.70 points, or 0.45 per cent, at 4,128.17, while the Nasdaq Composite dropped 70.86 points, or 0.58 per cent, to 12,246.83 at the opening bell. In Canada, the Toronto Stock Exchange’s S&P/TSX composite index was down 38.84 points, or 0.19 per cent, at 20,657.33, at the open.
