I have a group of about 2400 stocks/ETFs that are in my universe (loosely). These are names that have some decent size to them ($300M+ market cap), and at least 100,000 in daily volume, and a stock price over $10. Of that 2400 there are only 120ish which are green on the day. That includes some inverse ETFs. So this clearly fits the definition of a 90% down day (indeed, we're around 95%).
If interested here are the names that are positive - some have clear catalysts such as Green Mountain Roasters (GMCR) and Starbucks (SBUX) but on days like today I like to look for those who can pull a Kermit, and if they are not a utility or healthcare stock that might be seen as a safe haven, I like to investigate further. With oil down $3ish something like airline stocks would also be expected to rally.
Here are the names gaining at least 1.5% today; I've shaded the inverse ETFs - interestingly with all the hand wringing out of China today due to the import/export numbers we have some Chinese stocks on the list. NFLX, FN, and JDSU are recovering from some recent beatings...
