Robert, this selloff is more on perceptions just like every other time. Fundamentals haven't changed, their perceptions and risk taking behavior have. Also, I disagree with anyone who says the election doesn't matter. It does; it changes perceptions. Imagine the following thought process -
Selecting a pres used to be a routine thing, now it's not. We could do it in a day, now we take 3 weeks, wait, maybe 6 weeks, maybe we won't be able to settle on one till Jan 12th. What else is not routine ? What else will go slower than we thought ? Maybe nothing is routine. Maybe the imagined future also will arrive slower than we thought. Maybe future is not as great as we thought. Let's go sell some stuff...

The problem Gore presents is that he can be an excuse, of sorts. But the moves today spell *serious* trouble, in my mind. The break of Sox 600, the failure of NDX 2666 to hold, and all that bad news about slowdowns. B Bera was right when he said this was going to look like 99-2000 in reverse.
