Dunno, that crash felt pretty bad if memory serves

I'm talking raw stock market valuation data here. 
  
 The crash was bad because it was also a pretty bad contraction of the broad economy, severe deflation, large unemployment. It's called Great Recession for a reason. 
  
 What the economy does and what the stock market does aren't the same things. Compare with dotcom, all in all a comparable drop in the stock market to 2008 but only a very minor economic contraction.
