The DOW Jones crashed today some 900 points over issues related to Greece economic crisis. It quickly recovered thanks in part to some Windex that was put on it.
From Yahoo:
U.S. stocks plunged suddenly but briefly by more than 9 percent on Thursday afternoon before pulling back to a near 3 percent drop, as investor worries mounted that Greece’s debt problems could spread.

Don’t forget to blame P&G :
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — In one of the most gut-wrenching hours in Wall Street history, the Dow plunged almost 1,000 points Thursday, before recovering some, as on a technical glitch in the trading of Procter & Gamble stock and fears about the European debt crisis spreading.

Its foolish to assume that order entry errors caused Thursday’s crash as some reports suggest. The fact is the world economy is yet to reach stability. There are air pockets around the globe, waiting to be punctured. Expect more such market crashes. Artificially engineered bail-outs like in the case of Greece, are bound to fail.
