(Worthy News) – Stocks took a tumble Tuesday as the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell nearly 800 points amid renewed fears regarding the U.S.-China trade war and a possible economic slowdown.

The Dow closed down 799.36 points or, 3.10 percent, at 25,027.07, while the S&P 500 fell 3.24 percent and the Nasdaq Composite slid 3.8 percent, as President Donald Trump stoked trade war fears and a flattening yield curve prompted worries of a recession.
