The S&P 500 slid 1.9%, its biggest single-day decline in more than a month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 650 points after having been down more than 960 during the heaviest selling. Technology companies drove much of the broad sell-off, though losses in communications services, financial and industrial stocks helped weigh down the market. Energy stocks also dropped in tandem with crude oil prices.
The S&P 500 fell 64.42 points to 3,400.97. The Dow slumped 650.19 points, or 2.3%, to 27,685.38. The Nasdaq composite lost 189.34 points, or 1.6%, to 11,358.94. Smaller company stocks also took heavy losses, knocking the Russell 2000 index down 35.29 points, or 2.2%, to 1,605.21.in much of the United States and Europe, raising concerns about more damage to the still-weakened economy.

“While we are seeing nations attempt to stifle the spread of the virus through more localised and tentative restrictions, it seems highly likely that we will eventually see a swathe of nationwide lockdowns if the trajectory cannot be reversed,” said Joshua Mahony, senior market analyst at IG in London.The U.S.
Among the market’s few gainers were companies that can succeed even in a stay-at-home economy. Zoom Video Communications gained 1.2%. Across the S&P 500, profit reports for the summer have been mostly better than Wall Street had feared, though they’re still on pace to be more than 16% lower than year-ago levels. Through Friday, 84% of S&P 500 companies reported better results than analysts had forecast, according to FactSet. If that level holds, it would be the best since at least 2008, when FactSet’s records begin.

EU and Sweden now both exhibit herd immunity. Cases swell but death rate is stable.
TRUMP SUCKS. THE DOW WAS WAY BETTER UNDER OBAMA
Prove it
Pro tip. Buy the dips.
Gonna be right back up to record levels when Trump wins his re-election. 🤷🏻♂️
We can thank Donald J Trump for this.

Does your wealth depend on stocks?
Maybe Trump will notice, it’s his administration’s refusal to take basic, essential steps to try to keep the virus under control, that has caused this latest fall! TrumpIsLosing
Hey, maybe he'll brag about this at his rallies.
It has been 239 days since the first Covid 19 death. The USA has had an average of 968 people die every single day since Feb 29th.
😷
Wait until the Dow Jones Industrial Average drops 10k points.
Wait until you see how far it falls when Biden is elected.
Is that 1.5 trillion that Trump pumped into corporate bonds running out already?
They see Biden winning.. markets do not like Biden. Our bank accounts and investments don’t like Biden. People are throwing away money voting for this clown. Expect short stock declines end of year if he’s elected.
Who would have thought that not controlling a virus would damage the economy? Hmmm
The stock market is fake as long as your average Joe isn't making any money off of it.
