The Dow fell more than 500 points and U.S. oil prices slid, as investors see dwindling prospects for a new stimulus package amid the campaign season

The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped about 500 points, falling in tandem with oil and gold prices and sparking worry among some investors of further turbulence ahead.

Monday’s losses were broad. Economically sensitive sectors like materials and industrials led the declines. Meanwhile, U.S. oil prices tumbled 5%, and gold, a traditional haven, fell 2.6%. The simultaneous declines across various asset classes spurred anxiety for some investors and traders who fear a repeat of March’s market turmoil.

The Dow dropped 1.9%, while the S&P 500 fell 1.2%. The technology-laden Nasdaq Composite lost 0.1% All three indexes recovered somewhat from their lows earlier in the day. The declines extend the stock market’s retreat into a fourth consecutive week, snapping a summer rally that had propelled the major indexes near record levels.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the Democrats desire to crash the economy before the elections!

Those big banks under investigation....

This means that when a stimulus does get approved most will go to corporations and wealthy investors again.

OH OH, TRUMP IS MAD NOW HIS BELOVED STOCK MARKET ISN’T LOOKING GOOD HERE

Dow plummets 615 points amid growing fears of another virus lockdown - Business InsiderBusiness Insider is a fast-growing business site with deep financial, media, tech, and other industry verticals. Launched in 2007, the site is now the largest business news site on the web. _ReaalAmerican_ 825 points down at 10:35am... there's no fear of a 'virus lockdown', but nice try market media. Seems more likely the Trump lies are finally catching up, and the GOP's power grab is having a negative impact on market confidence. It’s not lockdown fear. It’s fear of a total and utter political shitstorm in November which makes reasonable people want to hold on to cash... it’s called extreme volatility. In the words of Woodward, there is dynamite in the whitehouse Nope. Big banks and some very shady deals...
