However, it just shows one part of the equation. If one was long yesterday and choose to set the stop just below 1400 for whatever reason, he or she should have ensured that the 30 or 40 points delta to the stop reflected only X% of their trading equity, with X being the amount of money they were willing to lose on that trade. So, looking at the move only does not tell you much.
The more interesting question is maybe, whether someone who had the stop at, for instance, 1410, was also able to get out at 1410 or whether the person experienced major slippage.
