Dow falls more than 200 points after ‘dreadful’ retail sales report sparks recession fears
https://www.yahoo.com/finance/m/10420881-006b-312f-8d0d-33cdf56523cc/dow-falls-more-than-200.html
U.S. stocks opened solidly lower Thursday morning after lackluster economic reports overshadowed optimism over progress in U.S.-China trade negotiations. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) fell about 205 points to 25339, a decline of 0.8%, the S&P 500 index (SPX) fell 0.7% to reach 2,734, while the Nasdaq Composite Index (COMP) declined by 0.5% to 7,384. The retail sales report is likely to weigh on the government’s official scorecard for the economy known as gross domestic product, with fears of a recession looming.
Lackluster economic reports? Why, it seems that it was only a few days ago that trumptards were telling us how great the economy was under Trump.
