Does power exist without violence?
U.S. stocks fell on Wednesday, with the Dow sliding more than 100 points.
The Dow is now riding a three-day losing skid, capped by today’s 126-point drop, marking the first time this year the blue-chip average has suffered three straight down days.
With it all said and done, the Dow went 112 trading days without a three-day losing streak, the longest such stretch in its history. The previous record was set in 1935, when the Dow went 93 trading days without three straight down days.
Perhaps most notable is that the number of companies hitting 52 week lows surged to the highest since October 2011.
