Wild market. We haven't seen anything like this since the dotcom bubble burst.
Over the last 8 sessions, 115 stocks in the S&P 500 have decline 7% or more in a single day.
The average drawdown when that happens is 34%. Right now we're 1.5% below the all-time high.

Should the S&P 500 finish February higher, that would mean stocks gained in both Jan and Feb.
Rest of year? Higher 93.1% of the time and up 12.3% on avg.
Full year up nearly 20% on avg. Wouldn't that drive the permabears mad?

#Raiders are 0-4 this season when leading by double digits at halftime. They are first team since at least 1930 to lose 4 times in a season when leading by double digits at the half #fantastic
