The S&P 500 fell 2.4 percent, led by Apple Amazon and other big tech names, with the Dow down about 526 points and the Nasdaq off 3 percent. The pullback widens September losses and fuels talk of a correction amid COVID-19 and stimulus uncertainty.

A federal lawsuit filed in Wisconsin argues Facebook failed to enforce its anti violence ban during the Kenosha unrest. It seeks an order banning militia and hate posts and damages for plaintiffs traumatized by armed groups at protests linked to Jacob Blake's shooting. It cites Kyle Rittenhouse and the Kenosha Guard call to arms as context.
