The Dow fell by about 238 points Tuesday, a drop of more than 1%. It was its biggest slide of the year and biggest decline since the election. The broader S&P 500 was also down more than 1%.
Neither index had ended the day with a 1% drop since mid-October. This was their worst day since September.
The Nasdaq, which includes many hot tech stocks such as Apple (AAPL, Tech30), Facebook (FB, Tech30) and Amazon (AMZN, Tech30), fell nearly 2%.
This recent market weakness seems to be a sign that the market tone has shifted to a more negative one, at least temporarily.

The United States is giving nine airlines until Saturday morning to make sure that passengers on flights from 10 overseas airports aren’t carrying any electronic devices larger than smartphones with them.
A senior Trump administration official said the airlines are being given 96 hours to fully implement the rules, starting 3 a.m. ET Tuesday, because “evaluated intelligence indicates that terror groups continue to target aviation, to include smuggling explosives in electronic devices.”
Officials wouldn’t say how long the restrictions will be in place.

You’ve been there: You’re on a picnic. You’ve got the wine. You forgot the corkscrew.
Oh sure, you can jam something in the cork, watch in horror as it disintegrates into the bottle and wind up fishing out tiny cork bits from your glass all night.

The Fed raised interest rates a quarter of a point this afternoon. Here’s what it means for your money.
Savings: “The ‘average’ saver won’t see much benefit because the ‘average’ financial institution is unlikely to increase the measly payouts in a meaningful way,” said Greg McBride, chief financial analyst for Bankrate.com.
Those salting away their cash in a bank account have earned next to nothing in interest for the past few years. That won’t really change.

We’ve all been there — the moment when we walk too fast on an icy day and lose our balance and know that we are going down. Hard.
.
Unfortunately, there isn’t a magical trick that we can give you never to fall again. Or to fall gracefully.
But if you are going to fall, you might as well commit to it and make it safe.
We talked to Femi Olagoke, a professional stunt performer, who told us some of his best tips for falling safely.

Authorities on Friday were investigating the deaths of a Spirit Airlines pilot and his wife whose bodies were found by their children in their southwestern Ohio home. A coroner said the preliminary cause of death for both appears consistent with a drug overdose.
Pilot Brian Halye, 36, and wife Courtney, 34, were found dead Thursday in a bedroom of their home in Centerville, south of Dayton, police said.
The couple’s children can be heard on a 911 call after their parents failed to wake them for school.
“They were very cold,” their son told a dispatcher while his three sisters can be heard crying in the background.

A small Alabama town has agreed to dole out $680,000 among nearly 200 poor people it had jailed for failure to pay court fines, settling a case that embodied a national movement to fight what reformers call the criminalization of poverty.
The lawsuit, filed in September 2015 by the Southern Poverty Law Center, alleged that Alexander City ran “a modern-day debtors prison” in which indigent defendants people had to pay off fines by serving time in the municipal jail at a rate of $20 a day.
Almost immediately after the suit was filed, the city of 15,000 changed its policies to allow poor people to pay off fines differently, either in installments or through community work, Alexander City’s lawyer, Larkin Radley, said.

The attacker took the soldier’s weapon before seeking refuge in a shop, interior ministry spokesman Pierre-Henry Brandet said. He was then shot dead.
No one else was injured, Brandet said, adding that an investigation has been launched.
The French National Police tweeted that a “police operation” was underway at the airport, with an elite operations unit and bomb squad officers at the scene.
