<< Coming from an era when S&P 100 companies having 3% single day stock swings would be front page news what's happening today is hard to comprehend. Intel losing $150B market value, Google $480B, Microsoft $360B earlier this year, SpaceX $400B, Nvidia having several $500B+ swings in either direction... People are barely blinking at trillion-dollar companies gaining or losing a quarter of their value overnight.

You compared old times to new times. I am simply testing whether it makes sense. Just a bigger absolute number on one day does not change much, and just the 150B example only a decade ago is different from 150B now.

And you seem to know this.. so why offhand response?

edit: 150B clarification
