Barclays as NYSE
Plunge
The Market, and Apple Take a Dive
The election behind them, U.S. investors dumped stocks Wednesday and turned their focus to a world of problems -- tax increases and spending cuts that could stall the nation's economic recovery and a deepening recession in Europe.
The Dow Jones industrial average plummeted as much as 369 points, or 2.8 percent, in the first two hours of trading. The average was on track for its worst decline in a year.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell as much as 40 points, or 2.8 percent.
Energy companies and bank stocks took some of the biggest losses. Both industries presumably would have faced lighter and less costly regulation if Mitt Romney had won the election.

Move over, Obama; Twitter Had a Big Night Too
President Barack Obama called it — in less than 140 characters.
Around 11:15 pm EST, just as the networks were beginning to call the race in his favor, Obama took to Twitter to proclaim himself the winner over Republican candidate Mitt Romney.
"This happened because of you. Thank you," Obama tweeted.
That the president would take his message to Twitter before taking the stage in Chicago underscored the tremendous role social media platforms like Twitter played in the 2012 election.
Minutes later, with the race called in his favor, Obama tweeted again."We're all in this together. That's how we campaigned, and that's who we are.
Thank you. -bo."
