I expect far WORSE in a month or so which is the scary part here because it is questionable how many companies will survive this long period of salaries with zero demand even with emergency aid packages. By next month the infection rate is calculated to barely having plateaued yet, with exponential rate until then. I worry this will go so far that it’ll take a very long time for worldwide business to heal due to layoffs and wrecked personal finances killing demand even when we’re past the corona spike, and by then weapons like Fed’s lowered rates will have already been used. I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re leaving this year with a -50% stock market value and 5-10 years for everything to get back to speed and valuation like it were. It’s not even uncommon advice to not be heavily into the stock market if you have less than a >7 year savings horizon for these reasons.
