The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI) has deepened its early morning losses at the midday mark, now down triple digits, while the Nasdaq Composite Index (IXIC) and S&P 500 Index (SPX) are trailing behind with sizable losses of their own. This comes after several days of impressive wins, with the energy, materials, and tech sectors driving the course of today's sell-off. Despite this, all three indexes are on course for weekly wins. Meanwhile, oil is back down after Russia said it could not yet commit to Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries' (OPEC) proposed crude production cuts. March-dated crude futures are down 1.3% to trade at $50.31, at last check.
