| Universe | Adv | Decl | A/D | Advance share | > 50 DMA | > 200 DMA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Percentages in brackets are changes in percentage points (pp) from the previous session.
Our read: we think the story today is the width of the selling, not the size of the index move. When 439 of 472 movers fall, it is hard to blame a few heavyweights.
Looking back over the last 20 sessions, advancers outnumbered decliners in 6 of them. That is the backdrop we keep in mind for today.
