Stock Market Reacts to Shutdown Aversion: Dow Jones Drops, Tesla Stock Declines

The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 150 points after the U.S. government averted a shutdown by passing legislation to extend funding through mid-November. Tesla stock also fell after the company reported weaker-than-expected third-quarter deliveries. The stock market is currently in a correction, and investors are advised to hold market exposure in the 0%-20% range. The September job report, expected to show moderate strength, is a key economic report to watch this week.
