U.S. Stock Indexes Open Lower as Dow Drops 1%

Bybit reports that major American equity markets saw early declines on March 9, with broad losses across all key benchmarks.

Fact Check
Primary financial news sources (Investopedia, CNBC) confirm that U.S. markets opened with significant losses on March 9, 2026. Investopedia explicitly mentions Dow futures sinking 1.1% and the index erasing a 900-point intraday drop, which aligns perfectly with the claim of a 1% drop at the open.
