    That is correct.

      It is so correct not to overlook it. Seemed almost like an elephant in the room for a minute there. But looking back, was it a market "correction" or maybe just a rug-pull? You probably had to be there. But we knew there was nothing like it until the 1970's. So many of the people who had lived through 1929 were still alive. Unless you were quite fortunate in the early 1970's, you would realize that 2008 was a non-event by comparison.
