I think these acronyms actually apply to different events. Here is the way I see it:

MCHVE (Multi Commodity High Velocity Event) comes first. MCHVEs are not all that infrequent these days.

LLCF (Lock Limit Cluster F*ck) comes next. LLCFs are not all that infrequent these days.

THUMP (onomatopoeic)comes next. THUMPs don't happen often, but do happen from time to time.

BK (Big Kahuna) comes last. And we're still waiting for BK, which is a myth.

I should add, SoftBank (my proxy for the Nasdaq) down 6.5%, but Tokyo hasn't closed, and Nasdaq futures trading below 3,000, but that means nothing, does it?

i think it's 'multi-correlated high volatility event'. meaning that it is a result of intermarket pressures becoming too much to bear. (e.g. a sharp rise in interest rates, or a sharp fall in the dollar precipitating a stock BK).
