    Hi All,
    Does anybody keep a record of such sudden price anomalies?
    Thank you.

  2. I don't keep a record but I do remember them well.......that surprise Fed easing back in October 1998............returning from the men's room and looking up at the board and seeing the Dow Jones up ~400 points in the span of 10 minutes. The same thing happened again in January and April 2001. Moral of the story? Don't drink a lot of fluids early in the day!!
