Terror attacks in Belgium on Tuesday rocked global markets. U.S. stocks slipped and investors moved into safer assets. Shares of European leisure stocks fell on the heels of an attack at Brussels airport.'These [stocks] really took most of the brunt of the sell-off and we also saw a move into the Japanese yen and gold as well,' said Brenda Kelly, head analyst at London Capital Group. 'There's no real risk appetite out there.' Reports suggest at least 26 people died in the attacks and more than 100 injured. TheStreet's Scott Gamm reports from New York.
