Major indexes end sharply lower amid U.S. recession fears; Apple declines

U.S. recession fears

Major U.S. stock indexes ended sharply lower on Monday as U.S. recession fears gripped global markets, while Apple shares dropped as Berkshire Hathaway cut its stake in the company nearly in half.

Caroline Valetkevitch for Reuters:

The recession concerns followed weak economic data last week, including Friday’s soft U.S. payrolls report.

Shares of Apple fell after Berkshire Hathaway halved its stake in the iPhone maker. Billionaire investor Warren Buffett also let cash at Berkshire soar to $277 billion.

Nvidia, Microsoft, and Alphabet also slid, while the Cboe Volatility index, Wall Street’s “fear gauge,” rose sharply…

U.S. Treasury yields tumbled to their lowest level in a year and a closely watched gap between two- and 10-year Treasury notes turned positive for the first time since July 2022, usually indicating the economy is heading into a downturn.

    1. The chickens from the current Biden/Harris $35.5 Trillion dollar total deficit are coming home to roost. All that money they’ve wasted should have been available for individuals and businesses to invest and then supply the needs and desires of American citizens. Now it appears that we’ll have not only the recent inflation but probably a nasty recession as well. And an extra war may be closer too.

      1. The depth of libturd stupidity is staggering

        Remember how much better this country was when people as stupid as Joe any the other libturds were locked up in mental institutions?

    2. Don’t insult our intelligence. Trump’s tax cut for billionaires blew up the deficit. Infact, deficits have gone up with every Republican president since Reagan, and down with every Democrat.
