Dow dives 373 points as Trump drama rattles market
Stocks fell sharply Wednesday following reports of a memo from former FBI Director James Comey that says Trump asked him to stop the investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
The Dow ended 373 points lower Wednesday -- about a 1.8% decline. It's the biggest drop since September.
A key measure of market volatility also spiked. The common "I word" in the market lexicon -- inflation -- is now being replaced by whispers of impeachment.

Trump will be gone eventually and things will straighten out again.
I only posted this because Trump bragged about how he was the reason for the markets recent rise. Looks like he may be the reason for a rapid decline as well.
