Hi, just wanted to inform you, that the spike of 40 points down at 10:17 CET in the DAX was caused by an "input error". Apparently a key on some trader's keyboard got "stuck", resulting in selling way more than he intended. At least that's what they're saying here on german TV (n-tv). Amnesiac
It was on n-tv, it's a german news station that covers the stock markets too. They also have a live stream on the internet: http://www.n-tv.de/1179.html Amnesiac
