8/16    We have a correction!  Dow is now 10% below the 14K high.
        \_ no we don't
           \_ The finance industry says it's the technical definition of
           \_ Wall Street says it meets the technical definition of
              a correction.

        good source to get stock market price (minute-per-minute resolution)
        from?
        I've been away procreating. Looks like wall is no more. Where have all of
