Good MorningThe selling intensified on Wednesday as rising numbers of COVID cases and fear that another round of stimulus may not come until next year. The major Wall Street indices all fell more than 3.0% to close at the low of the day. The S&P 500 is now at its lowest level in nearly a month. With the broad market index down more than 8.0% from its high a deeper sell-off looks all but certain.
The VIX, the markets fear-gauge, surged more than 20% for the day to set a new four-month high. The move is strong and points to the rising fear of a no-win situation for the stock market. If incumbent Donald Trump wins the election it is assured that stimulus would be far less than what it would be under a Democratic president. If former Vice President Joe Biden wins the market will fall on fear of rising taxes.
