Summary

  • S&P 500 and other global indexes have taken a significant tumble in recent days

The S&P 500-stock index fell 3.3 percent, registering its fifth consecutive daily decline. This is the longest string of down days for the S&P 500, the market’s benchmark, since November 2016. Similarly, the Dow tumbled 3.15%, or 831.83 points. This is clearly not an isolated phenomenon with Asian markets performing even worse.
