Dow suffered a 600+ point drop in 5 minutes. The reasons as to why it happened:

1. Circuit breakers do not kick on after 2:30 PM.
2. A glitch created a feedback loop.

People were scared for their jobs. In 100 minutes it could have hit 0 if it kept on that rate.

I'll take that as a yes lol.
For the record though "people were scared for their jobs" a statement that can be said for anything.

last week when I had my arms and legs cut off I was scared for my job, but then my generator kicked on and my limbs re-grew.

I don't understand this thread. Why was this made? It's seems like a random trivia question explained for no apparent reason. :p
