The sell-off on Monday Dec 2 was sparked by a lower than expected ISM number. When markets began to sell, larger investors were repositioning for the end of the year and that meant taking profits in many of the winning stocks that had good moves higher in November. Buyers moved lower quickly but with many stocks near their record highs, sellers chased them lower as they already had good profits and a drop of 2 or 3 percent in a stock was not going to affect their overall return. While selling was happening there were further reports of setbacks with trade negotiations with China. All of this combined to send stocks lower to start off December. This also added to the historic record of the first day of December ending lower over most of the past 10 years.
