The Detroit News. Two traders look at the final numbers after the close of the New York Stock Exchange on Friday. But experts say there can be consolation. They are just doing now what they thought all along they should be doing. On Friday, the Dow Jones industrial average fell 617.78 points while the Nasdaq was down 355.49 points.
Nothing is fundamentally wrong with the nation's economy.
The increase was predictable and due to rising oil prices, which are declining. People who invest for the long-term have nothing to fear. On Monday, there will be strong incentive for investors to buy stocks. If investors don't come back to the market, the corporations will.
