Dow Jones Industrial Average Today Continues Historic December Slump as Shutdown Looms

The Dow Jones Industrial Average continues to bleed red as investors pour out of stocks and flock to bonds in the wake of the Federal Reserve's decision to hike interest rates this week.

The Dow hit a 14-month low after shedding another 500 points on Thursday.

This morning, Dow Futures were off another 60 points in premarket hours.

The threat of a U.S. government shutdown is only exacerbating investor fears as well.
