Dow Jones Plummets, Kind Of Recovers, Over Greek Crisis


We don't own any stocks, ourselves, but if you or someone you love is an i-banker or day trader you may have heard about today's flurry of panic on Wall Street, in which the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped about a thousand points only to recover later at a loss of 300 or so points, all due to concerns about Greece going down the toilet. All the major indexes lost about three percent, and while everybody's down at Rickhouse trying to drink it off, please enjoy this "oral history" of "The Crash of '10," courtesy of The Awl. UPDATE: Did a trader's error, entering a "b" for billion instead of an "m" for million cause today's "crash."? [BuzzFeed]
