Dow Tumbling Toward 10,000; VIX Tops 25 - CNBC

Stocks tumbled 2 percent Thursday, putting the Dow dangerously close to breaking through 10,000, amid worries about the US job market and Europe's ability to get a grip on its debt.

Major indexes were down more than 2 percent. Alcoa, JPMorgan and Bank of America led the decline on the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Just one of the 30 Dow components was higher — Cisco.

The CBOE volatility index, the market's fear gauge, spiked above 25.
