September 15, 2008: The Day The World Economy Almost Collapsed
Video, Rep Kanjorski, Capital Markets Subcommittee Chairman explains (at about 2:20), how there was a $550B electronic run on America's money market accounts, that unless congress acted immediately, by 2pm that day, it was estimated tthat $5.5T would be taken out of the US economy, causing a complete US and international economic collapse.
If an individual or nation was responsible, that was the closest thing to an act of war imaginable.
