• The Dow Jones Industrial Average

• The S&P 500 Index

• The Nasdaq Composite Index
COMP,
-3.47%
fell 3.5% and ended 15.8% below its record closing high Feb. 19.

The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil contract for delivery in May expired Tuesday after sinking below zero Monday. West Texas crude for June delivery

CLU20,
