Important context: The date of the 12.93% drop was on 3/16/2020, which was arguably the peak of the fears and hysteria around the looming Covid-19 pandemic. The first confirmed death in NYC was just 17 days prior and state-wide shutdowns were happening all over the country. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_daily_changes_in_the_Dow_Jones_Industrial_Average https://www.cdc.gov/museum/timeline/covid19.html
