NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Stocks tumbled Monday afternoon as falling oil prices, geopolitical worries and a weak economic report raised worries that the rally has gotten ahead of any recovery.

The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) lost 216 points or 2.5% with under 2-1/2 hours left in the session. The Dow, after ending last week in positive territory, slipped back into the red for 2009.

The S&P 500 (SPX) index lost 26 points, or 2.8% and the Nasdaq composite (COMP) fell 53 points, or 2.9%.
