| U.S. stocks saw a broad-based rout Thursday, led by a selloff in consumer discretionary, technology and energy stocks as investors wrestled with worries about a slowdown in global growth. The main indexes posted their biggest declines this year. The S&P 500 fell below its 200-day moving average and turned negative for the year, ending 1.1% below its close at the end of 2014. | |||||||
