Dow Jones Slides More Than 200 Points on New Coronavirus Fear and Chinese Stocks Selloff

The U.S. stock market on the 23rd started off with a strong(?) selloff. As of 9:45 AM, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is shifting around 29005.28, with a drop of 180.99 points from the previous day, as a result of investor’s concerns for the newly emerged coronavirus triggering a recession of Chinese economy. The U.S. stocks (were affected?) following the decline of Japanese and European stocks as the Shanghai stock market suffered a sharp drop. Throughout the day, Dow Jones fell as much as 200 points.

On 23rd January, a new patient of the coronavirus was confirmed in Singapore. At the threshold of the Chinese New Year, the negative impact on local business and travel industry is unavoidable as the Chinese government has reportedly shut off two more cities in addition to Wuhan, a hotspot for the outbreak.
Travelers Insurance weighed down on Dow Jones as their financial result such as premium revenue for the third quarter of 2019 published on the morning of the 23rd failed to reach the market forecast.
The stocks of China-related construction machinery brand Caterpillar and Dow Chemical were also affected by the selloff. With the decline of the U.S. long-term interest rates, a concern for a low-profit margin is pushing the bank stock prices further down.
Texas Instruments stocks dropped due to weak earning prospects published earlier in the evening of the previous day along with the quarterly accounts.
A tip of semiconductor-related stocks such as Intel and Advanced Micro Devices are being sold off as well.


NYダウ、一時200ドル超安 新型肺炎や中国株安で

23日の米株式相場は売り優勢で始まった。午前9時45分現在、ダウ工業株30種平均は前日比180ドル99セント安の2万9005ドル28セントで推移している。新型肺炎の感染拡大が中国景気を減速させるとの懸念が投資家心理を冷やしている。中国・上海株式相場が大幅安となったのを受け、日本や欧州株が下げ、米株にも売りが波及した。ダウ平均は下げ幅が200ドルを超える場面があった。

中国の新型肺炎については23日、シンガポールでも感染者が確認された。中国政府が発生地の武漢市に加え、新たに2都市の交通機関の運行を停止したとも伝わり、中国の春節(旧正月)商戦や観光に影響を与える可能性が高まっている。
23日朝に発表した2019年10~12月期決算で保険料収入などが市場予想に届かなかった保険のトラベラーズが下落し、ダウ平均の重荷となっている。
中国関連銘柄とされる建機のキャタピラーや化学のダウなども売られている。
米長期金利の低下を受け、利ざやが縮小するとの見方から銀行株も安い。
前日夕に四半期決算と併せて公表した業績見通しが物足りないと受け止められた半導体のテキサス・インスツルメンツ(TI)が下落。
インテルやアドバンスト・マイクロ・デバイス(AMD)など半導体株の一角も売られている。

S. stocks (were affected?) following the decline of Japanese and European stocks as the Shanghai stock market suffered a sharp drop.

This is too hard to correct. If I'm understanding the Japanese correctly - Following a sharp drop in the Shanghai stock exchange, European and Japanese stocks declined, and the effects have spread to the US?

Throughout the day, the Dow Jones fell as much as 200 points.

At the threshold of the Chinese New Year, the negative impact on local business and travel industry is unavoidable as the Chinese government has reportedly shut offdown public transport in two more cities in addition to Wuhan, a hotspot for the outbreak.

Yes, that's correct. I had no idea how to translate it naturally, so I did it just word for word....

I might be wrong, but I interpreted your translation as meaning multiple investors, so the apostrophe should be placed after the letter s.

Also, if you are talking about a plural noun and the noun ends in the letter s, you only use one apostrophe.

Plural example in which the noun DOES NOT end in the letter s: children's toys
Plural example in which the noun DOES end in the letter s: the boys' basketball team
