Last week's Dow plunge was historic
It's been quite the wild ride for the markets as of late.
The Dow Jones plunged by about 10.5% between August 19 to August 25, exacerbated by China's "Black Monday."
In light of these crazy up-and-downs, the analysts at Morningstar (via StockTwits) shared a chart showing all the periods since 1976 when the market fell by more than 10% in five trading days.
It's only happened five times before this recent swing, with some coinciding with major events such as the 9/11 attack and the 2008 financial crisis.
"This correction will be in the history books," StockTwits tweeted. "Seriously."
