It may be the worst decline ever for SOME INVESTORS, but it's FAR from the "worst stock market decline ever". From 1929-1932 the "stock market" (commonly known as the DJIA) declined 85%. While many Nasdaq investors probably have losses like that, the OVERALL market is not that bad (yet!). The DJIA is down about 16% from peak and the broader Wilshire 5000 is down about 28%.

It hurts but it's FAR from the "worst market decline ever".
