I thought the circuit breakers kicked in again at 13% losses?

This is while Trump speaks and sounds as clueless as ever...god help us all.

Agreed. Out of a million, maybe.

Any of you US Senators out there?? Republicans?? Yeah, you guys. Wanna rethink that vote you took a little while ago about removing this asshole from office?

But I see the market dropped about 800 points between 3:20 and 4:00.

I just glanced when it started and it looked like it went up briefly to start and then took a dive.

Pretty obvious as the presser went on Trump had no clue what was going on.

Trump thinks that he knows it all better than anyone else. He thinks that he speaks eloquently despite sounding like a complete idiot.

People are starting to notice more and more, except those who are so totally bought in that they are as stupid as he is.

The sad thing is that Trump has no insight, no sense of self awareness that allows him to understand how utterly stupid he sounds to anyone but himself and his cronies.

-2997.19 according to Yahoo! Fiancé at the time of this post.

I remember one day back in late ‘08 when the volume was so heavy it took 45 minutes after the bell for the final tally to settle.

Maybe they're waiting for the Dow to go under 10K. Glad my rollover IRA has been in money market funds for the last couple of years.

I've never seen anything like this and I worked nine years in the brokerage business many years ago.

I am convinced he started the presser today with a view to repeating the Friday rebound but he has absolutely no credibility
