New York (CNN Business)A dramatic escalation of the trade war between the United States and China sparked a worldwide sell-off in markets on Monday. The Dow closed down 767 points, and the Nasdaq — a proxy for the technology companies that are particularly tied into the Chinese economy — suffered its longest losing streak since November 2016.


At its worst, the Dow was down 961 points. Even though the index clawed back some of its losses, it was the worst day of the year for the index, as well as its sixth-worst point drop in history.
The Dow (INDU) fell below 26,000 points for the first time since June.
The S&P 500 (SPX) traded 3% lower, and could post its worst day of 2019.
The Nasdaq Composite (COMP) fell 3.5%, its biggest decline since October 24, 2018. The Nasdaq logged its longest losing streak since November 2016, when it fell for nine-consecutive days in the lead-up to the presidential election.
The S&P 500 fell for six consecutive down days for the first time since October, and the Dow posted its longest losing streak since March. Last week, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite logged their worst week of the year last week.
Hit particularly hard were tech stocks. Apple (AAPL), Intel (INTC), Microsoft (MSFT), Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) were among the biggest losers on Monday.
The VIX (VIX) volatility index soared more than 30% to a seven-month high. The CNN Business Fear & Greed Index is indicating "Extreme Fear."
Asian markets all fell more than 1.6% Monday, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng closed down 2.9% as protests continue in the region. In Europe, London's FTSE 100 finished down 2.5%. Germany's DAX and France' Cac 40 closed 1.8% and 2.2% lower, respectively.

Something more to chew on:

FOR YOUR ANALYSIS AND CONSIDERATION:

I just received the below information, and find the content most concerning. Unless a serious but genuine mistake occurred, then there appears to be some significant problems with the announcement and identification of the alleged deceased suspect in the Dayton, Ohio bar shooting yesterday. Reportedly the gunman was dressed in body armor and shot a line of people waiting to enter a nightclub. Among those shot and killed were the shooter’s sister and her boyfriend. Now read below.

Wherein on finds:

James LaPorta, a reporter from Newsweek, took to Twitter and attempted to debunk the claim that the man in the obituary was the same person as the alleged shooter, citing differences in their middle names and birth years:

I’m going to post same basic info about the #Ohio shooter because I’m seeing a growing trend online; false flags & fake news. Fact check: Connor D.

An ABC News article also confirmed the suspected gunman’s middle name was Stephen:

The suspected shooter, identified by police as 24-year-old Connor Stephen Betts, allegedly carried out the massacre with a .223-caliber rifle that he legally purchased and had two drum magazines that had 100 rounds of ammunition combined, Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl said at a news conference Sunday afternoon.
