Only if you liquidate all your stocks to cash at what is obviously a very disadvantageous time.
In reality, your rent/mortgage and other commitments would continue to fall due at a very predictable monthly schedule.
So you sell down only as your liabilities fall due. The majority of your holding stays invested so you can capture the rebound over the following months.

Although, one might be able to make the case that the political winds have changed to ensure the rebound happened in months. But it’s still a riskier assumption than assuming a rebound in a few years.
