FYI: We’ve been hearing a lot of talk about the pick-up in “100-point” days lately. After yesterday’s 100-point decline, the Dow had experienced a 100+ point move on 7 of its last 8 trading days.
Below is a chart showing the number of 100+ point Dow days over the last 100 trading days going back to 1996. As shown, while we’ve certainly seen an increase in the number of 100-point days over the last few months, there have been prior periods where they were much more frequent.

What matters is the percentage point move.
