FYI: The Dow Jones Industrial Average wiped out all of its year-to-date gains for 2018 as the stock market unraveled on fears of rising bond yields. The Dow DJIA, -4.35% shed 1,500 points at its low and was recently off 1,055 points, or more than 4%. That intraday move erased all of its gains, pushing it negative, down 1% for 2018 after boasting a return of nearly 6% at the end of January. The Dow was down 838 points, or 3.3%, at 24,695, while the S&P 500 index SPX, -3.88% was off 2.7% at 2,688. The broad-market benchmark was still up 0.6% for the year, but had erased much of its more than 5% gain in January. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, -3.53% was off 2.1% at 7,088, retaining a 2.7% return.

Now ya know tis a few hours to markets open on the other side of the international date line, yes?
So, the humans will be ready and the machines do not sleep.
How much do I wanna bet? I'm already betting our portfolio; and I can not afford more than this.
