The New York Stock Exchange Closes at 1 PM EST Today.

That's just over an hour from now. Right now, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is down 547 points. That's over 2.4%. The DJIA is below 22,000 now. It's been falling for some time recently. It's been going down steadily all morning and since Noon. Given the trend, it's likely to continue to fall. There's no optimism in the market on this Christmas Eve.

Whose fault? Trump's fault. We are led by a selfish, addled, idiot.

Just think of today's stock market as Donald J. Trump's Christmas gift to America.
