But first, the numbers.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 179.4% to close at 48,892.

And the S&P 500 dipped 29.4% to end at 69.39.
Gold and silver were on a tear all month until they tanked today.
Investors who fled to them as safe havens in uncertainty seemed a bit less uncertain after the president named his choice for Fed chair.
