2:45 PM Market Crash: One of the Worst

| May 11, 2010 | Comments 5

Forget the Great Depression, the 1987 crash, or the dot com bubble; the 2:45 PM crash might have been one of the worst.

It’s amazing to see how fast the markets plunged I wonder if the fact that many of the firms shutdown trading operations made it worse.

Proctor Gamble and 3M were the ones effected by the trading glitches and their stock price took quite a hit.

    Nice picture of that shirt.

    I find it way more convenient finding out news like this while browsing the Internet than watching the tele.

    Don’t think you were surprised James.
    Your last post had the list of companies doing well.We will see how they react.
    Sure there are concerns.
    Is it due to Goldman Sachs situation ? a delay reaction in the Stock market ? I doubt it.
    Not 2 put you on the spot & going off topic but I was wondering about your reaction(s)to the GS controversy ?
    I am expecting finger pointing in the days to come.
    Stay tuned !
