Global Equity market witness sell off

It's an historic day for the United States, but it may not be one for the markets. Global equities initially cratered on word of a Trump presidency, even triggering safety breakers on U.S. index futures, but have pared losses. Dow futures are now about 400 points lower, while the S&P and Nasdaq are down over 2%. The tone is certainly negative, but this is not a Brexit reaction. 

The Mexican peso was hit hardest, tumbling as much as 13%, while the U.S. dollar plunged against the euro, yen and Swiss franc.
