Stocks: Markets have been hit hard this month by a range of worries, including the US-China trade dispute, a rout in emerging market currencies, rising borrowing costs and bond yields, and economic concerns in Italy.
Energy: Crude Oil prices down by about 1% Thursday, coming under pressure from selloffs in global stock markets, with US stocks posting the biggest daily decliner since Y 2011 erasing the year’s gains.
