Reply #1: You weren't around in 1987 when the stock market dropped 500 plus points [View All]

in one day, hmmm? Then it rallied slightly the next day and dropped even more the day after that... Thing were really hairy for a few months. That was before the Dow hit 3000. It was a 23% drop in one day.

The Dow dropping 191 points in one day when the value is more than three times that of 1987 isn't cause for panic ... yet.
