bcrafty - Thanks for the link. I've been wrong plenty before, as I may be this time, but let's not call what happened "controlled or orderly selling" when the markets are down 7% in a single day. I don't know if that was funds selling, hedge or otherwise, but it was way down on record-ass volume and I know some small investors "stepped up to the plate," in the name of patriotism at some cheerleaders' behest and and got under water in a hurry on those investments.
