U.S. stocks tumbled today as they play catch-up from yesterday as the world reacted to debt issues in Dubai, which is seeking a six-month moratorium on interest payments.
30-minutes into the trading day the Dow is down 180 points, the Nasdaq is down 43 and the S&P 500 is down 23.
While the Dubai news first surfaced on Wednesday, world markets didn't have a chance to digest the news until Thursday as the U.S. was celebrating the Thanksgiving holiday.
After selling off Thursday, European stocks re-gained their bearings on Friday but Asian stocks were hit hard. Hong Kong's Hang Seng closed down 4.8 percent while Japan's Nikkei fell 3.22 percent.
