There, proof that this does affect people directly, even if only because of the effect the emotions have on everything else that happens.

Of course, sales suck in a bad market anyway... just worse when what you're selling relates to one or more of the markets in trouble.
In the last three hours? I doubt that. The crisis as a whole is causing that effect not a one day drop in the market. The drop is a symptom not the disease.
