The Dow is floating around 21,800 points today. That's about 1,700 points lower than where it closed yesterday. It's also lower than at any point in 2019 ... or 2018.
Yup, the last time the Dow was this low was September 2017. The Equifax data breach had just exposed just about every American's personal information. And Hurricane Maria had just slammed into Puerto Rico.
The Dow is down about 7.3%. If it falls another few percentage points, it'll be on pace for its worst day since October 26, 1987.
