Indeed. S&P 500 is still not even below of what it was in the end of 2018 after the last major instability. Partly thanks to this, 2019 was a marvelous year with stocks gaining almost 40% during a single calendar year.

My reading is we're in a normal correction that has been exacerbated by COVID and last night's massive fall (-30%) in oil price.



Just because it's "normal" doesn't mean that it's not a crash.
