Top 20 one day percent decreases in Dow Jones

Last Monday the Dow Industrials fell by 777 points after the US Senate didn’t pass the 700 billion bailout package. Most news reporters informed the public that Mondays drop in the oldest US stock index was the largest one day point drop ever. They were correct in this one. The issue is that this was not the largest drop in percentage terms.
