For the week, the Dow was down 2.8 percent, the S&P was down 2.8 percent and the Nasdaq down 2.6 percent. For the month, the Dow was down 3.6 percent, the S&P fell 3.1 percent and the Nasdaq was off 2.1 percent.
January marked the worst monthly performance for both the Dow and S&P since January 2014.
