Major top in 2000 end of august, same for 2008. sept was not good for the bulls both of those years. Or course, same for 2001, but nobody (unless you adhere to conspiracy theory, like why did the pentagon turn off the defense missile system they had just installed just before the plane crashed in to the pentagon?) could have seen 9/11 as the catalyst of that years big drop in sept.
