Wall Street plunging into pit of despair
(Agencies)

A runaway train of a sell-off turned the anniversary of the US stock market peak into one of the worst days in Wall Street history Thursday, driving the Dow Jones industrials down a breathtaking 679 points and deepening a financial crisis that has defied all efforts to stop it.


 A weary trader rubs his eyes as he pauses outside the New York Stock Exchange following the end of the trading session in New York October 9, 2008. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 678.91 points on the day to finish at 8579.19 closing below 9,000 for the first time since 2003. [Agencies]




Could it be just a year ago that jubilant investors were celebrating record highs in the stock market? It almost seems inconceivable now as both Wall Street and Main Street stare into a seemingly bottomless pit of despair that has swallowed up $8.3 trillion in shareholder wealth during the past 366 days.

"We aren't dealing with a fundamental economic issue any longer," said James Paulsen, chief investment strategist for Wells Capital Management. "We are dealing with fear. And that doesn't respond to economic medicine."

That hasn't stopped the US government from trying to find a remedy.

In a series of moves aimed at avoiding the mistakes that culminated in the Great Depression nearly 80 years ago, the US government already has committed to spend more than $1 trillion to prop up ailing banks and other lenders during the past month of turmoil.

But none of it seems to be working, which only seems to be scaring people even more, especially after US leaders spent nearly two weeks painting a gloomy picture of the economic outlook to persuade Congress to approve a $700 billion bailout of the banks.

"I think right now there are just some very powerful negative images that are alive in many people's minds -- images of the Depression, images of people selling apples," said George Loewenstein, a behavioral economist at Carnegie Mellon University. "The images of the downside are just so salient in people's minds, and nobody has presented an upside image yet."

The quarterly 401(k) statements that are starting to arrive in the mail will only serve as another grim reminder of the financial carnage. And it has gotten worse since the quarter ended in September, with the Dow Jones industrial average tumbling every day so far this month.

In this week alone, the Dow Jones has plummeted by 17 percent, bringing the total decline to 39 percent since the US stock market's most famous bellwether peaked at 14,164.53 on Oct. 9 a year ago.
