Stocks tumbled Tuesday, with the Dow falling as much as 326 points and the S&P hitting an 8-month low after a big drop in consumer confidence and signs of a bigger slowdown in the global economy.
The S&P 500's close was its lowest for 2010, but the index did rebound from a low of 1,035 to finish above 1,040, a very important support level.
Crude oil fell $2.31 to $75.94 a barrel. Gold moved up $3.80 to $1,242.40 an ounce.
If you wanted a bit of good news, Electric car maker Tesla Motors debuted on the Nasdaq under the ticker TSLA, rising 12% from its IPO price late Monday. The stock was up 40.5% to $23.89.
Futures trading late today suggests a soft open on Wednesday.
