Dow jones today crashed by almost 680 points, This is the 4th biggest single day loss in the history.The decline was almost 7.7 percent which is like 12th worst percentage drop on a single day.It all started when the US investors went through the Holiday sales report and also industrial growth which had already crashed the market but the whole market crash happened after the recession data came in from NBER which i have talked about it in the last post.
Market movers

>U.S. manufacturing contracts more-than-expected in November
> U.S. credit card industry may cut credit lines by over $2 trillion
> Black Friday sales up 3.0%, according to ShopperTrak
> NBER officially declares U.S. recession started in Dec. 2007


No more thinking of using the R word , everyone will just use this single word from now on , Its official that US has gone into recession.National Bureau of Economic Research declared that America has gone into recession for some time now.When i say sometime its almost a year now from December 2007. Its they have to analyze the data and finally come out with the result and with the employment data they have Employers have trimmed payrolls by 1.2 million jobs in the first 10 months of this year.They are expecting another 350000 job loss for remaining year may be so finally 1.5 million jobs for this year alone.One good news is like when you compare the recession data before US is almost in the time to come out of it .We will see how many more month they need to come out of recession.The market already has responded to this.
