Why the Dow is in such a historic funk and how concerned you should be
The Dow is in its longest losing streak since 1978, down 9 days straight. UnitedHealth’s 20% drop and a rotation out of cyclical stocks like Sherwin-Williams and Caterpillar are mainly to blame. But don’t panic: the broader market is still thriving, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq at record highs. Experts say this downturn is just a pause before a potential rebound, especially with a key Fed decision coming soon.
