💥 WALL STREET MELTDOWN — BLACK MONDAY (October 19, 1987) 💥
That day changed financial history forever. 📉
In just one trading session, U.S. markets suffered their biggest crash ever:
📊 S&P 500: –20.5%
📉 Dow Jones: –22.6%
Billions vanished within hours. Traders panicked, phones rang endlessly, and the NYSE floor descended into chaos. 😱
Screens flashed red as portfolios lost value in minutes — the world watched in disbelief. 💀
But from that disaster came progress. 💡
Black Monday led to the creation of circuit breakers — automatic halts that stop trading when volatility surges too fast, preventing total collapse. ⛔️
And through it all, one truth stood tall:
📈 Markets crash, but they always recover.
Every collapse plants the seed for the next rise. 🌱🔥
Black Monday wasn’t just a crash — it was a lesson in resilience, adaptation, and courage. 💪💰#WriteToEarnUpgrade #BNBATH900 #BNBATH #CPIWatch
