  2. very true. 3rd largest SPX drop in history. I mean 100+ ES points in a single day.

    Just imagine some of the big players who get margin called and had big stops hit on the way down. If there was ever a way to get rid of any long stops ... well this was it.

  3. "The Dow ended down about 350 points, or 3 percent, after being down as much as 998.50 earlier, the Dow's biggest intraday drop on record."
