Friday marked the final trading day on Wall Street of 2022 and stocks…did not end on a high note. In fact, it was such a low note that a year this sour hasn’t been recorded since 2008.
From the beginning of 2022 until now, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than eight percent. The S&P 500 lost nearly 20 percent over the year. Since January, the Nasdaq ended things down more than 33 percent. That puts all three indices at their worst year-end since 2008.
