DJI-NEW YORK, Oct 6 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks slid for a fourth straight day on Monday, leaving the Dow below 10,000 for the first time in four years, on fears the global economy was hurtling into recession despite government efforts to contain the fast-spreading financial crisis.

The steep declines came in the first full session since the U.S. Congress approved a $700 billion bailout of the financial industry, as lending came to a virtual halt and investors shifted their focus to the crumbling outlook for the economy and profits.

But the market cut almost half its losses in the final hour of the session, as traders speculated the sell-off may trigger a coordinated global response to thaw credit markets. The Dow plummeted as much as 800.06 points -- a record intraday point drop for the blue-chip average -- as it slid 7.75 percent to its session low at 9,525.32. By the closing bell, though, the Dow had recovered 430.18 points to end down 3.6 percent.

The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> fell 369.88 points, or 3.58 percent, to 9,955.50. It was the first time the Dow closed below 10,000 since October 2004.

For the year to date, the Dow is down about 25 percent, the S&P 500 is down 28 percent and the Nasdaq is down 29.8 percent.

FCPO-KUALA LUMPUR (Dow Jones)--Crude palm oil futures on Malaysia's derivatives
exchange fell as much as 11.3% Monday as estimates showed a surge in inventory,
and on spillover impact from new U.S. biodiesel tax rules, weaker soyoil and

prices, ample local reserves and large domestic crop of soybeans, helped push
prices lower.

lower at MYR1,820 a metric ton, off an intraday low of MYR1,775, a level not seen
since November 2006.
