For the first time in it's history the Tokyo market closed early. News reports indicate that volume was nearing the capacity of their system so they closed early. The Tokyo market lost nearly 3% of its value in one days trading...The does not bode well for the Japaneses economy and I believe it will have a ripple effect on the other world markets.

Well, Japan did better than Russia...
The benchmark dollar-denominated RTS index closed 11.5% lower at 1,131.12, while the more liquid, ruble-denominated MICEX shed 17.5% to 1,067.45. Amid the rout, both of Russia's major bourses suspended trading for an hour towards the close, the first time such a step has been taken since Russia's financial crash in 1998.
