    How much did it fall during the Spanish flu that kills 10s of millions? Oh, it went up and made all time highs after we were through the middle of it? Very interesting.

    Of course the Dow was down 40% right before the flu, so it had nowhere to go but up. Now were down about 40%, so we should be seeing a 30% gain very shortly which would take us to about Dow 25k.

    During the Spanish flu, we didn't have the InT3RweBz. Hell we had WWI, and rotary phones. How did we manage to survive it all?!?

    World War 1 ending had a little something to do with gains in the middle of the Spanish flu.
