Afternoon Note
It’s been a rough session thus far with the major indices down close to 2%.
The Dow transports are really taking it on the chin, down about 2.7%, and have had the largest two-day decline in a year, off 5.05% or 515 points. Airline stocks (big names down over 6%) are the major contributors to the sell-off in the transports. Delta (DAL) raised its Full Year 2019 cost outlook from +1 to +2, and the stock is 7%.
Energy is also down over 2% after the latest EIA report showed a larger than expected build.
All eleven sectors are in the red, with the Industrials, Materials, and Technology the hardest hit. There are simply no safe havens sectors today.
