A Wall Street slump to end the week amid growing concerns the economic recovery is in jeopardy due to a continued wave of new COVID-19 cases.

The Dow tumbled 730 points. The S&P 500 gave up 74. The Nasdaq dropped 259 points.

Peter Kenny is founder of Strategic Board Solutions: "There are some sectors of the market that are really pulling the broader market lower and we can see that in the Dow and the industrials. We can see that in the S&P 500 in the financials, particularly. The lack of participation of the financials on the trade higher has truly acted to mute any substantial or further gains as it stands right now. So financials, industrials both - not really helping the cause for the bulls."
