nah, i'm about to rebalance in favor of equities when the S&P dips 10% beneath its high

but really, I have the luxury of time when i make this statement. Doubtful i'd be as bullish if i were nearing retirement.

Also, the Dow is a pretty meaningless index. Doesn't really capture the whole effect of the market and isn't even weighted by capitalization. Always use the S&P as a guide; in which case, top 20 in terms of single-day percentage loss
