Newsmax-Friday, 28 February 2020<\/p>\n

The S&P 500 fell for the seventh straight day on Friday and the benchmark index suffered its biggest weekly drop since the 2008 global financial crisis on growing fears the fast-spreading coronavirus could push the economy into recession.<\/p>\n

However, stocks regained some ground right at the end of a volatile session.<\/p>\n

The Dow and the Nasdaq also registered their deepest weekly percentage losses since October 2008.<\/p>\n

The Dow Jones Industrial Average swung back from an early slide of more than 1,000 points to close around 350 points lower. The S&P 500 fell 0.8% and is now down 13% since hitting a record high just 10 days ago. The Nasdaq reversed an early decline to finish flat.<\/p>\n

The Dow lost nearly 3,600 points this week and the S&P 500 posted a double-digit weekly percentage loss for only the fifth time since 1940.<\/p>\n
