per WP:NOTNEWS; there's no sign this sell-off will have long-term impact. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 23:24, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
- Delete: Sufficient time was given for this article to be expanded, but hardly ever any independent reliable sources were reporting on this sell-off along with its impacts: short-term and long-term. And since markets appear to be recovering from this month's major pullback, it's appropriate to delete this article for now.

- Update: Although markets sold off during the course of last week, there is no official word on whether that is related to last month's sell-off or whether it is a completely different situation. Nonetheless, the article still doesn't have much to say about a recent event, suggesting there is insufficient coverage that can be verified without question (particularly ABC News). Also, the text was copied from another article that compiles a list of stock market crashes and bear markets before being removed for reasons L293D provided for this discussion.
