  What: Shares of RealD (NYSE: RLD  ) plunged for real today, down by 17% at the low, after the company announced disappointing box office sales for June.

• [By Travis Hoium]

  What does this mean for the big screen?
  It's not only the small screen where 3-D has struggled. The big screen saw an explosion of 3-D content after the success of Avatar in 2010, as IMAX and RealD (NYSE: RLD  ) expanded their offerings. But, since then, the industry has been more selective about how it uses 3-D. Batman director Christopher Nolan shunned 3-D, and hits like The Hunger Games and Skyfall weren't made in 3-D, meaning just one of last year's top four films were 3-D.�

The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM) fell 3.9% to $38.24 this week–dragging down U.S. stocks with it. The S&P 500 fell 2.6% to 1,790.29, its largest one-week decline since June, 2012, as it was pulled lower by International Game Technology (IGT) and Kansas City Southern (KSU). The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 3.5% to 15,879.11, its largest decline since November, 2011, with�EI Du Pont De Nemours (DD) and�General Electric (GE) the biggest losers. The 10-year Treasury yield fell to 2.726%, down from 3.006% at the start of 2014, as investors flocked to the relative safety of bonds.
