The impact on some stocks was enormous although brief. Stock in the consulting firm Accenture fell to 4 cents after closing at $42.17 on Wednesday. It closed at $41.09, down just over $1.

This makes no sense. Either the reporter is confused as to what happened, or someone found a way to manipulate the computer system to make an absolute fortune in a few minutes.
