- Dow Jones tumbled nearly 900 points, hitting a session low into the close on June 10 in a broad market selloff (CNBC).
- Inflation rose to 4.2%, compounding selling pressure from war escalation fears, with the Dow and Nasdaq both opening lower before the slide deepened (WSJ, Yahoo Finance).
Why it matters: A 4.2% inflation print well above the Fed's 2% target — paired with fresh war escalation fears — hit growth and risk assets simultaneously, with the Dow's near-900-point slide into the close quantifying the compounded shock hitting portfolios on June 10.
