  • If you’re going to “well, ACKchyuallllly” someone, it helps to have any idea what you’re talking about.

    The DOW “plummeted” 337,47 points from 44.882,13 to 44.544,66, a reduction of ~0,75%. Given the drop wasn’t percentage based but was additionally expressed as a percentage of the previous closing price for context, it would require an additional ~132 similar drops to reach zero.

    Now, you’re probably noticing I listed the DOW and ~132 drops here versus NASDAQ and 134 drops prior. That’s because I was making a joke and was not much concerned about details. This is because, unlike certain individuals, I am not one of the most insufferable types of people: the pedant.
