The stock market slides to a fresh session low. The S&P 500 is
down more than 5%, but is still up 4.9% this week thanks to the 11.6%
surge on Monday.
The recent downturn has been broad-based and there does not appear to be a specific catalyst for the decline.
Meanwhile, buying interest picks up in Treasuries and the dollar (+0.9%).
The Brazilian Bovespa stock market tumbled to a 10% loss, prompting a halt in trading.
