Summary

From the article:

The striking thing is how late the market moved. Wuhan was locked down and the WHO had declared an emergency a full month before the peak. The 34% drawdown then took 23 trading days, and the bottom coincided with the Fed’s unlimited-QE announcement rather than with any turn in the epidemiological news, which was still getting worse through April.
