Disappointed that today wasn't a "classic" capitulation day?

For the most part the selling has been fair and orderly. Just a little bit of fear shows up and the PPT steps into the fray.

Biggest disappointment: finding out on this thread that BrandonF didn't press the edge and buy heavy on the extreme negative $tick -1287.
 
There must be something in this Plunge Protection Team story they have even started talking about it on CNBC and those guys really know what they are talking about NOT :cool:
 
Now I admit my somewhat addled brain ain't what it used to be, but if I am not mistaken, the Tuesday after the '87 crash was the biggest percentage up day ever. Is this correct? That is how I remember it anyway. Anyone have accurate numbers on this?

My records show that the DOW closed down 508 points on 10/19/87 and closed the following day up 102 points.
