The U.S. stock market tumbled to one of its worst days since its springtime sell-off.
The S&P 500 sank 1.7 percent Thursday and pulled further from its all-time high set late last month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.7 percent from its own record set the day before, while the Nasdaq composite lost 2.3 percent.
