US stocks plunged into bear market territory as Wall Street investors grew increasingly nervous about the prospect of even more harsh medicine from the Fed to take the sting out of inflation.
The Dow sank 825 points, or 2.7%, and the Nasdaq fell 4.3%.The broader S&P 500 fell 3.6%. That index is now more than 20% below its all-time high set in January, putting stocks in bear-market territory. Inflation and recession fears had eased somewhat at the end of May, and stocks regained some ground.
