Stocks tumble as Covid-19 cases surge and stimulus is nowhere to be found
Wall Street took a dive on Monday as coronavirus, Washington intransigence and earnings weighed on the market. All of this is creating a cocktail of uncertainty that the market doesn't like one bit.
US stocks sold off all day, from the opening to the closing bell, and the selloff just gathered pace during the trading session.
The Dow (INDU) closed down 650 points, or 2.3%, after falling as many as 965 points at its low point. All Dow stocks closed in the red except Apple, which eked out a .01% gain. It was the Dow's worst day since September 3.
The S&P 500 (SPX) -- the broadest measure of the US stock market -- closed down 1.9%, making it the index's worst day since late September.
