45. I basicly agree with your post but add that 2.7 pct is dramatic (though not a crash). And tRump's tantrum sparked it.

Just that morning an analyst had dumped cold water on the "irrational exuberance" case by saying that the rise has been "orderly", which it kind of has been since May after the April fall and recovery.

2.7 percent in one day is not an orderly temporary pause or pull back. It might turn out to be one or the other of those, but orderly it is not.
