From Reuters
Why is DJIA down 400 points
There was a marked sell off at New York Stock Exchange on fears of Ebola outbreak...Those who suffered were airline and hotel stocks
Two nurses contacted Ebola after caring for Thomas Duncan, a Liberian national who was confined in Texas hospital. One of the nurses, travelled to Ohio, was in close contact with several other persons plus airline passengers (100+)
It was bad enough that Duncan was misdiagnosed, and the nurse who cared for Duncan allowed to travel in a commercial airline from Texas to Ohio. It should not happen to USA. Thus the head of CDC, Tom Frieden was put on the spot. For this lapse.
Even Pres Obama had to cancel his campaign trip to attend to this crisis.
How could lapses here affect the trading at NYSE?
