Happy Anniversary!

چکیده
On this day in 1987, shares of Procter & Gamble were a tad weak, trading down 23 1/4 to 61. Philip Morris was off 15 1/8 at 87 1/2, Disney fell 19 1/8 to 46 and shares of Dupont were also under pressure, falling 18 1/2 to 80. The DJIA dropped 508 on volume of 605 million shares. The (perhaps apocryphal) story is told that Fed Chairman Greenspan -not wishing to unsettle jittery markets by altering his published schedule -flew from Washington to the West Coast during trading hours on October 19. Upon disembarking from his plane, an aide told Greenspan that the market had dropped "508" and the Fed Chairman replied, "$5.08 -that's not bad!" Unfortunately he was off by a couple of decimal points!
