What is the meaning of one point in a stock market?

What I think you may be referring to are "basis points". If that is the case, a basis point is essentially a fraction of a % (1/100). So, for every 1%, there are 100 basis points. If this did not answer your question, please let me know. If you are referring simply to "the market is up a half a point"... then that is just one dollar.

What is a -3dB point in an inverting amplifier?

The -3dB point is the point of half power. In a filter, the -3dB point, more commonly called the half-power point, is the point where the output power is one half the input power. A bandpass filter has two half-power points, and the distance between them is called the bandwidth, whereas a low-pass or high-pass filter has one half-power point, which is called the cutoff frequency. In terms of voltage, the half-power point is where the voltage is 0.707 (1 / square root(2)) of the input voltage.
