points-wise: never. Percentage wise: many many many many bigger drops -- nm - ty97 Feb 5, 13:14 10
- my guess would be percentage wise it's still in like the 97th percentile or higher for days... - x Feb 5, 16:21
- Points-wise is what gets headlines, I think. "1,000! That's a big number!" -- nm - Roger More Feb 5, 13:19 8
  - Yup. -- nm - znufrii Feb 5, 13:21
  - oh I know. And it looks like percentage-wise, it ranks a bit higher thank I initially thought. Looks to be the 14th biggest daily % drop for Dow. -- (edited) - ty97 Feb 5, 13:21 5
    - It's not in the top 20. -- (link) - Reagen Feb 5, 13:23 4
      - that's the page I used and it's there. -- nm - ty97 Feb 5, 13:27 3
        
        ?? The points chart shows it as a 4.6% drop, which doesn't make the top 20 on the percentage chart. -- nm - mara Feb 5, 13:33 2
        
        d'oh! I sorted the point chart by % and didn't even see the % chart. -- nm - ty97 Feb 5, 13:37 1
        
        Do you do managerial reporting by any chance? -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 5, 13:37
