NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks are closing sharply lower, led by a decline in energy stocks as the price of oil plunged to its lowest level since 2008. The price of crude closed below $34 a barrel Wednesday after more signs emerged that China's huge economy was slowing down. Oil and gas stocks bore the brunt of the selling. Southwestern Energy dropped 13 percent and Marathon Oil sank 12 percent. The Dow Jones industrial average gave up 252 points, or 1.5 percent, to 16,906. It was down more than 300 points earlier. The Standard & Poor's 500 index lost 26 points, or 1.3 percent, to 1,990, its lowest close since early October. The Nasdaq composite fell 55 points, or 1.1 percent, to 4,835.
