(62,448 posts)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, 1987known as Black Mondaythe 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.

(62,448 posts)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.

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