Here are a few more facts about the ugly end to an ugly day.
The market basically closed at its session lows — not something that stock bulls like to see.
The Dow fell 318 points, ending under 16,000 for the first time since Dec. 17, and this was also the index’s lowest close since Dec. 17.
The S&P 500 shed 38 points, ending under 1,800 for the first time since Dec. 17, and this was also its lowest close since Dec. 17.

The djia goes up 10,000 pts. in four years and a 600/800 drop is a catastrophy.
The greedy Jews could see the market go up 1,000 points every day and still not be happy.
Miserable bastards!

The market is nothing but a ponzi scheme. There's not much real money in it...it's all been siphoned off for their lavish lifestyles and billion dollar bonuses. If the market ever really crashed, only very few would see any money.

At least if gold crashed to zero, you'd still be holding something finite, something that still has uses and something that took a lot of labor and energy to get.

Back in 2007/2008 it was a daily thing dropping 300+ a day was the norm. I lost a bunch and dont play that game anymore.

Pretty much dropping through the entire day. Any news (bad results?) as an explanation? If not it could be the selling of the ones in the know prior to a Black Monday...

There has been no reason news or otherwise in many years, that is how I got my ass handed to me. You can not make any sense of it.

A stock trader once told me that 1 point is approx. 1 billion dollars. That is a 320 billion dollar drop at 320 points. Dayum.

This was many years ago so if it is not correct today, please educate me. How much is 1 point worth in the Dow Jones Average? I am to lazy to google it.

I don't know, but I'll take a guess. With all the funny money floating around, probably worth a trillion now. What the Dow number is means nothing when you have currency that's backed by nothing.

I would think it is pretty much the same. But a billion today is worth less than it was 20-30 years ago... Let me check...

[Neuro]

NYSE is today worth aprox $16,000 Billion, so a point in Dow Jones would be worth approximately 1 Billion, since Dow Jones is aproximately 16,000 points...

[Atocha]

Thanks all! $16,000 billion is $16 trillion. So I will continue to say 1 point is 1 Billion dollars. Thanks again.

Errrmageeeerrrrrd... let me calculate my losses!


Lessseee....



Hmmmmm....


ZERO!

Coolio.

[Silver Rocket Bitches!]

It's ridiculous that the banks are sloshing the money back and forth on the stock market using FED money while refusing to make loans to main street.

End of days logic, I think...
