Happens every time they up the minimum wage. Increased costs lead to negating the increased earnings.

CNBC said it is transportation sector sell off due to new mutilated variants. I don't think that is the case. DJ transport is very small fraction of entire market.

probably millennial cashing in to buy stuff for holiday.
If this massive cashing in from kids trying to buy holiday trickle huge sell off (which also leads to margin call) I will be laughing.
