On Tuesday, BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty dived in pre-opening sessions after the Wall Street suffered record-breaking losses.

The BSE Sensex was down by 2.17% at 34,0002.60 and the Nifty plunged by 3.32% at 10,312.50.

Okay, fine, if all these numbers and percentages don’t interest you, the Twitterati are here with their jokes as they think up bizarre reasons for the market crash.

What has @arunjaitley done!! Presented such a bad #Budget2018 that Stock Markets all over the world are falling #DowJones #Nifty #Sensex

But, soon after the Budget announcement on February 1, Indian investors have lost Rs 9.6 lakh crore in the last three days.

Why did it happen?

This was a domino effect after The Wall Street’s record-breaking loss on Monday. US stocks took a dive in highly volatile trading, as both the S&P 500 and Dow Industrials jumped more than 4.0 per cent. Reuters reported this the 1,600-point drop was the biggest intraday decline in Wall Street history.
