DJI-NEW YORK, Oct 27 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks closed at their lowest levels in 5-1/2 years on Monday, extending a global sell-off as worry about the severity of a global recession and the bleak outlook for profits gripped investors.
Trading was volatile and volume was light, with stocks falling sharply in the last half hour of trading. With just four days left in October, the S&P 500 is on track for its worst month ever in the post-World War Two period.
Hedge funds and mutual funds have been dumping stocks to raise cash to meet redemptions from their clients, traders noted, exacerbating the late-day selling.
The Dow Jones industrial average <.DJI> slid 203.18 points, or 2.42 percent, to 8,175.77, its lowest close since April 2003. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index <.SPX> dropped 27.85 points, or 3.18 percent, to 848.92, its lowest close
since March 2003.
The Nasdaq Composite Index <.IXIC> was down 46.13 points, or 2.97 percent, at 1,505.90, its lowest close since May 2003.
NYMEX-NEW YORK, Oct 27 (Reuters) - U.S. crude futures settled lower on Monday as trading seesawed with the volatile U.S. stock market, with recession concerns continuing to fuel worry about falling oil demand.
Crude oil was pressured on Monday despite Friday's OPEC agreement to cut production by 1.5 million barrels per day.
