According to Yahoo, over the weekend 18- to 22- Jan 2008, the Dow only lost 7 points, closing on Friday at 12,099 and opening at 12,092. Notwithstanding that the futures market indicated a down 500-or-so open, and the index indeed went there within the first few minutes. I don’t think any trades occurred or could have occurred at 12,092.

You're right, it looks like the Dow opened at 11,600 on Jan 22, according to BigCharts.

Calling a bottom/buy at 2247 on October 19, 1987 was still a VERY BAD CALL!
