And for the last 24 hours, it's been on a wild ride.

-(bell ringing) -As the coronavirus spreads,

the Dow closing down more than 2,000 points,

the market's worst day since the 2008 financial crisis.

REPORTER: Wall Street's wild ride continued today.

The Dow surged after President Trump talked

You can see stocks rallied in that final hour of trading,

up 1,100 points, to finish the day at 25,018.

Yesterday, it crashes. Then, today, it surges again.

It's always weird to me how the stock market

never seems to have any sense of history. Right?

'Cause it's like everything that happens is happening forever,

and then everything that's good is happening forever.

That's who seems like they run the stock market, right?

'Cause that's how dogs are. Whatever's happening

is happening forever. When you leave the house,

they're just like, "Oh, no. You're leaving? You're going?

And then you come back. They're like, "You're home!

"You're never gonna leave! This is so great!

"We're gonna do so many-- Wait, you're going again?

But, yes, the stock market dropped 2,000 points yesterday,

which-- I'll be honest-- I never understand.

Like, what does-- what does that-- Every time they say that,

I'm like, "Have you checked your other jeans?"

And a lot of people are afraid of the market these days,

on the stock market. I'll-I'll even share my tip with you guys.

Forget investing in companies. What I do is

I put all my money in green lines that go up

And I normally don't feel sorry for Wall Street,

I feel like they're going through a lot. Yeah.

Because the one thing guys on Wall Street like to do

when Wall Street is crashing is the one thing

you're not allowed to do because of corona--

So they spent all day yesterday like, "Oh, no. My money.

All right, but let's move on to some international news.

Because, while corona is shaking up the stock market,

Vladimir Putin is shaking up Russia's constitution.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has suggested

that he is not against a proposed amendment

that could keep him in power for many years.

REPORTER: Vladimir Putin came to parliament and said

then it should be possible for the current president,

And that means he could run for two more terms in office.

Yes, Vladimir Putin is trying to change the constitution

And that is bad, but at least now America can see

because Russia even meddles in its own elections.

Because-- you realize-- Putin is 67 years old now.

he'll only leave office when he's 83 years old,

which is just young enough to run for president in America.

Yeah, because what do they chant at his rallies?

He's like, "Just four?" "Uh, eight more year..."

What's interesting about this story as well

is that Putin is a dictator, but it's interesting

how he still goes through the Russian legislature
