Declining wages, no government restrictions on antitrust issues, ever higher executive bonuses, outside of a shrinking middle class leaving an ever smaller consumer base with a disposable income (see declining wages) that will decimate future sales whats not to love?

The markets across the board did a dive, but so did a lot of commodities and currencies.

If this continues over a week or two, somebody is pulling out large amounts of money to cover something else up. Otherwise, it's a combination of a correction with war jitters.

Shorting the "analysts" is one of the wisest investing decisions anyone can make.
