June 16, 2022 at 22:26 Sharp stock market crash in the US On Thursday, the US stock markets fell sharply, after the interest rate jump of 0.75 percentage points contributed to a rise the day before. Nasdaq fell as much as 4.1 percent. At closing time, the broad S&P 500 index was down 3.2 percent, while the Dow Jones industrial average fell 2.4 percent. The reason for the marked decline is the recent sharp inflation, especially caused by rising energy prices. (NTB)
