I have not read yet about how long that plunge lasted, but I have thought about what surely could be out there now...the buy orders that were in on those computers. (Some happiness in the land for those maybe.) But think about the sell orders. Can you imagine what that must be like for somebody who had a sell in on the computer and then that sell was followed by an instant big rebound. And some of those sells could get an insult upon injury cap gains hit. I don't know if I am reading all the possibilities right, but I think it might have been better when small investors would just squint at the print in the newspaper once in a while.
There will be some stories tomorrow I bet.
