Their capitalization tumbled by about $1 trillion through yesterday, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The figure exceeds the $988 billion value of the Swiss market, among the world's 10 largest by this gauge.

Gee Whiz!! And everyone was worried about $1 Trillion loss in Mortgage values.. ;0)

I remember the night (in 2001) that vix reading was out there very clearly. At the time it was a few days before 9/11 and you. me and Jorj had discussed it on MSN messenger - days later we hit it and then some.
