In the stock market, the Dow Jones Industrial Average suffered a 2,000 point loss, resulting in the worst trading day the US has seen in roughly 12 years. The S&P is sinking alongside it, closing today down 7 percent.

The price of oil is likewise down, and falling further: one barrel is now priced at $30.

“Crude oil has no limit down and did end up gaping down 27 percent,” explained market analyst Mati Greenspan in his latest Quantum Economics newsletter. “Everything that has to do with oil and energy is crashing today.”
