And so the story continues with the Black Monday Crash of 1987 through to the tech boom, Y2K bug and the year 2000. By the way you can catch Kenny on ausbiz tv where he appears regularly.

"These big Americana blue chip names got absolutely hammered. And so thus the Dow fell, you know, 22 and a half percent, the S&P that fell. It was horrendous. I'll never forget it. Again as I tell the story, I can feel myself in the room. I can feel the phones ringing. I can feel the tension in the, in the place. It was really, it was unbelievable. It was unbelievable. And we were there that night until, you know, eight or nine o'clock at night, just writing reports and confirming trades because there was such swings in prices.”
