It did go down on his comments, what's your point?
This stuff happens all the time. Do you think coal stocks went down when Obama declared war on coal? Do you think green stocks went up when he said he favored them? When Obama expressed a desire to cut defense spending, what happened to defense stocks? When Obama imposed unconstitutional EPA rules, what happened to energy stocks?
My goodness, you are completely overreacting. This stuff occurs daily. Fed minutes move the market. Fed statements move the market. President statements move the market. Always have always will.
Lastly, a 2% decline is NOTHING. It is not a collapse.
