The New York Stock Exchange closed sharply lower on Tuesday, in a market ravaged by a higher-than-expected US inflation indicator, which has dampened the optimism of the past few days and suggests an even more brutal-than-expected monetary tightening.
The Dow Jones fell 3.94%, the Nasdaq Index by 5.16% and the broader S&P 500 Index by 4.32%. This is the worst session on Nasdaq since mid-June.
