the STI lost 75.90 points in yesterday's session.but that's not going to be the climax.the Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 416 points.i repeat, 416 points in overnight trade (-3.29%).that makes it the steepest one-day drop since September 17, 2001.and the ripple effect is obvious.within the first hour of trade, the STI is off by more than 150 points (-4.5%).again, falls of this magnitude were only last seen in the days following 9/11.so investors, sit back and prepare for the worst.the much-awaited correction in global markets has finally arrived.pretty much of a hard landing, too.total blogging time today: 34 minutes.
