5:25 pm
>> pelley: carter evans reporting for us tonight. well, maybe a lot of those people are lining up after watching their life's savings shrink on wall street. today, the broad, continuing sell-off accelerated and all three major market indexes fell to a level more than 10% off last year's highs. the dow industrials have lost more than 7% in just two weeks. our market watcher, jill schlesinger, is joining us now. jill? >> reporter: this has been a rough first eight days. the dow is down by 7%; the nasdaq by 9.6%; and the s&p 500, the broader index, down by 7.5%. so, it's been rough. >> pelley: why is this happening? >> reporter: you know, the broad concern is around global economic growth. the fear is that if things slow down around the world, it will impact us here in the u.s. we're only growing by about 2%,
5:26 pm
any kind of hit to that is going to hurt quite a bit. we also know that oil is trading at around $30 a barrel, another sign, perhaps, of global weakness. and finally, we're starting up with earnings season, and there's a real concern that this is going to be a bad quarterly earnings season. a lot of companies, pretty sluggish by the end of the year. part of the reason is, they had to hire more employees and that took a bite out of their profitability. >> pelley: so, tell us, when is this going to stop? >> reporter: i wish i knew, but here's what we do know: the hope is that the market sell-off really does start to get a little bit of legs underneath it when we get some more information. so, maybe those corporate earnings are better than expected. if we get another quarterly earnings where it's a negative earnings, it will be the third in a row. it hasn't happened since 2009. also, we would like to see oil prices stabilize. they don't have to go up by a lot, they just have to stop falling. and finally, of course, what we need to know is, how is the u.s.
5:27 pm
if we have more information to prove that we're on the right track, i think things will calm down. in the absence of information, fear dominates, and that's when we get nasty days like today. >> pelley: jill schlesinger. jill, thank you very much. an slumping oil prices are one reason the oil-producing nation of qatar is shutting down the cable news channel al jazeera america. al jazeera's arabic language channel has a reputation for being anti-american. also in business news today, general electric said its corporate headquarters will be leaving connecticut after 41 years and heading up to boston. g.e. blamed an increase in connecticut business taxes. today, in detroit, some more schools were shut down again as hu teachers called in sick in a continuing protest that has seen nearly 70 schools shut down this week. the teachers claim that the health of 46,000 students is in i danger, and anna werner shows us

tonight, david martin explains how a potential crisis was defused. >> reporter: in video released by iranian television, the boarding of the two navy boats seems peaceful enough, but this tells a different story. the navy crewmen look like they're being held prisoner. then, the lieutenant in charge is asked what the boats were doing in iranian waters. >> it was a mistake. that was our fault, and we apologize for our mistake. >> reporter: that contrasts starkly with vice president biden's account on "cbs this morning" that one of the boats had engine failure and drifted into iranian waters where they w were, in his words, rescued. >> there's no apology. there's nothing to apologize for. when you have a problem with the boat, you apologize if the boat had a problem? no. and there's no looking for any apology. >> reporter: the crew was held for about 16 hours, and u.s. navy doctors have now examined them and found no evidence of mistreatment. so, at least the incident came to a quick and satisfactory end, ic

i mean, she comes up to my office when she wants campaign contributions, and i've given her tremendous contributions over the years. >> reporter: trump has given haley's campaigns at least $7,000 since 2010. haley acknowledged today that she was in part speaking about trump. >> i understood that when i hit republicans and democrats, i was going to upset people. i but they gave meet the opportunity to say what i think, and that's what i did. >> reporter: republican national committee chairman reince priebus told us he thought haley was making a broader point. >> i wasn't sitting there listening and thinking about fighting within the republican party. i was just thinking about the ou should be cooled down, and i've always said things like that. >> reporter: conservative firebrand ann coulter said on twitter trump ought to deport haley. scott, priebus told us the republicans have had their fair share of drama and intrigue but predicted they would unify,
