    The crash of 1987 was bigger as a percentage. But of course neither were anywhere near the Great Depression. A guppy is "kind of like" a shark, too.

    Sorta, but a lot of people lost a lot of money.

    The point is, both 1987 are 2000 are only comparable to 1929 in the way a guppy is comparable to a shark.

    1987 was a dispepsic narwhale. 1929 was Monstro. 2000 was a bloated sea cucumber.
