Just brief note, and not a satisfying answer to your question.
But time pressed at moment.
If COMPX had closed down 150points today, it would qualify as a definitive capitulation by definition(in 1929 following the 13% crash day, the DOW had rallied by 50% by late spring)
Someone need track down when any of the major indexes hit the over 10% down in one day, i only carry the events of 1929 and 1987 as in that category, but there may have been others in past 100 years that history did not passed on in the common knowledge category.
1915 and 1907 , perhaps, but that is just a wild guess. Max
