It was alot larger than this, in 1930-1932.

And 7/19 was 2.5 weeks ago - "For the week, the S&P fell 1.77 percent, while the Nasdaq fell 1.99 percent."

I somehow thought my Great Depression numbers were small. I'll look into the following years.

Just an FYI but if the DJIA was to have "kept" growth pace according how the economy was "growing" then it would have had to have been at 14,000 to break even with the year 2000.

It hasn't, so the economy is somewhere like 95-96 right now i would guess.
