Junior,

Falling knives is typically in reference to one stock with bad news being priced in. See P&G a few months ago. Blood in the Street refers to a sector (or entire index) that has come under pressure because of changing sentiment, or in this case, because too many people took out margin.

Guess what they mean is 'buy when you see your own blood in the street.'

is full of blood, but you shouldn't try to catch falling knives
Catching knives is one way the street gets full of blood.
