Analyst View
U.S. stocks were hit hard Monday as President Biden’s economic agenda stalled and a Facebook outage weighed down tech shares, amplifying the losses on Nasdaq. The Nasdaq Composite index tumbled 311 points, or 2.14%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 index lost 0.94% and 1.3%, respectively. Monday's losses extended the Nasdaq's decline to 7.3% from its Sept. 3 peak.

European bourses finished weaker after seeing early strength with Britain's FTSE 100 slipping 0.23% while France’s CAC 40 and Germany’s DAX 30 lost 0.61% and 0.79%, respectively.

In Asia, Japan’s Nikkei 225 slid 1.13% and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index tumbled 2.19%. China’s Shanghai Composite was closed for holiday, and won’t reopen until Friday. Meanwhile, shares of Evergrande Group were suspended in Hong Kong ahead of an announcement about a "major transaction." Chinese state media Global Times reported Evergrande will sell about 51% of its property services business to developer Hopson.

Commodities sustained their positive trend, West Texas Intermediate crude oil jumped $1.74 to $77.62 a barrel while gold ticked up to $9.20 to $1,766.20 an ounce.
