Thursday was an absolutely catastrophic day for the broad markets with practically everything sinking. There were a few stocks that held out and didn’t lose on the day but those were few and far between. No single sector or industry as a whole in the S&P 500 posted a gain today with the exception of major airlines, if that says anything.
