Title: Uh, the stock market just kind of crashed.
Post by: Snorkel on July 24, 2007, 03:48:54 PM
I was looking at Apple's stock for the day... to my shock and dismay, down 8 points. That is a lot. So I looked at Dow Jones... DOWN 200. That's unbelievable.

Lookit the chart (http://finance.google.com/finance?cid=983582&client=news).

I wonder what's the cause? Oil?

How is that a crash? psyduck;

It's a loss, yes, but not a total crash.

Also, how the christ do you get that Apple is down 8 points?

Dow Industrial has been going steadily up for a long while, hitting record highs lately... to suddenly drop 200 points in one day -- who knows how much more if the market wouldn't have closed -- is significant.

But it's not a crash.

Nor is it surprising.  Things like this happen.  A lot.
