Stock Market Enters Longest Losing Stretch Since 2008 Financial Crisis

Wall Street suddenly has the flu:

“The S&P 500 fell for an eighth straight session Thursday, its longest stretch of declines since October 2008.

The index has fallen nearly 3% since Oct. 25 as polls have tightened in the U.S. presidential election. Still, that decline is much milder than the 23% the S&P 500 lost in its previous eight-session losing streak during the financial crisis, according to WSJ Market Data Group.
