Post-election stock gains rapidly reversed in a broad sell-off, shifting the focus from the headline’s historical framing to the immediate scale of losses across major indexes and the sectors caught in the decline.
Why it matters: The session replaced the post-election advance with selling: the Nasdaq fell 5% in a chip-stock wipeout, while both the Dow and S&P 500 surrendered their rally gains.
