The problem is we haven't seen a 4% drop for years, from a predictive of recent decades, many who wasn't in the Stock market during 2008, a 4% drop is a mini crash.

Of coz for those of us who are in it for multiple decades.... 4% drop doesn't surprise us.



There were 10 other trading days in 2009 and 2011 where the S&P 500 index dropped more than 4.0%. The largest daily decline was -6.7%.

No one cares about investors who only got into the stock market after 2008. They don't have enough capital to really impact anything.
