[Demovictory9]

2. Was that a record loss today? Looked down about 13%.

6. by percentage or in $$$$?

I saw the other day that a day in 1987 had a 22% one day loss, but that the $$$ loss was less than today.

From google:
On October 22, 1987–known as Black Monday–the DJIA fell by 508 points, or by 22.6%, the largest percentage drop in one day in history. The crash sparked fears of extended economic instability around the world.

8. but 1987 were maybe two big drops. not as many big drops as we've seen in the last two weeks

11. For sure - I do not think anything can come close to the sustained losses

that Trump has racked up.
I calculated roughly we are @ 30% + drop from the top of the market in February.

And most of it is due to the confidence in the government being shaken because we have an idiot in charge with no clue what to do.

7. It dropped 20% on black Monday.

What was the worst single-drop at the height of the Great Recession?

5. And the bleeding has not stopped

[rufus dog]

9. 2.5%

And that is before any stabilization. A complete cluster. Repukes MUST have their noses rubbed into this Orange pile of shit. Any tRump supporter including all elected Republicans MUST be laughed off and ignored. Get back to me in a decade.

[Demovictory9]

10. what is 2.5%?

[rufus dog]

12. that would be the current % increase of the DJIA for three plus years of Chaos

The ignorant have basically made NO return under tRump. So the 2nd to last fig leaf they have is gone.

Time to make them be honest, they are ignorant racists.

[Demovictory9]

13. ok

[Roland99]

14. And we're not at the bottom yet

[ProudMNDemocrat]

15. I predict another huge drop tomorrow...

Ask your Trumper friends....How is your 401k doing now?

Ours took another hit today. Belt tightening time.

[Demovictory9]

16. nooooooooooo!
