Stocks and most likely your retirement account got slammed from all sides on Thursday. Inflation up, consumer price up, jobless claims up, construction down, and home sales down. There is very little positive  news going around. One analyst said that if we are not in a recession it sure does feel like one and that is just as bad as it gets. On Thursday the Dow lost 400+ points, while the NASDAQ lost 130+ and S&P lost 50+ points. Ed Butowsky joins Fox 4 News to try to examine what happened on Thursday and how this sell off is the same or different than others.
