you might want to rethink your analysis. global GDP is not "the stock market". The "stock market" in this story is actually the S&P 500. The high on 2/19 was 3386.15. The low right now as I post this is 2978.76. That's a drop of 12%. That is not a pothole. That is the grand canyon, opening all at once, not over a million years. Luckily, this is correlated to a single "act of god" event. It will recover. In the short term, however, there will be real consequences. This is one of those very, very good times to buy.
