Fed fear is back, sending stocks lower
CNN
Don't look now, but stocks are tumbling. Wall Street is looking at its second straight day of losses after the Federal Reserve suggested Wednesday it could ease off the stimulus gas as early as year-end.
So the investor angst continues, sending CNN's Fear & Greed index back into "extreme fear" from "neutral" just two days ago. Stocks opened in the red, with the Dow (INDU) opening down 240 points, or 0.7%. The S&P 500 (SPX) fell 0.6% and the Nasdaq Composite (COMP) also opened 0.6% lower. All three indexes moderated their losses a little bit in the first minutes of trading.More Related News
