re: #105 Hecuba’s daughter

The only thing that matters is percentage change NOT point change. The 500 point drop in 1987 was 22%; a 500 point drop today would be about 2%. Absolute numbers are meaningless in this situation.

Also, the larger the market, the bigger the point drops, so saying Trump has 7 of the 10 biggest point drops is like saying Obama got more votes than anyone before him - there were more votes to get than ever before.
