Yesterday’s 300-point loss, followed by today’s 200-point dive, reminded me of this enough to blog about it.
The Street shuts off computerized trading programs whenever a fall gets to be too steep, by percentage of the Dow, but does it do the same when a rise soars too fast?
Of course not.
So, the Dow isn’t such an accurate economic reflection point after all.
