We're at the end of a business cycle. Debts are massive. The current state of the stock market is nothing to do with the virus other than popping an already overinflated bubble.
One way or another the piper always gets paid.

Interestingly if you look back in history the most similar pattern can be found in 1919. When the flu pandemic hit the stock market crashed by 50%. Ok some might suggest the flu pandemic of 1919 was different, was it ?
The 1919 flu pandemic
Acting quickly, in late January, the NSW government ordered “everyone shall wear a mask,” while all libraries, schools, churches, theatres, public halls, and places of indoor public entertainment in metropolitan Sydney were told to close.

Maybe it’s time we embrace one of the other monetary paradigms gaining popularity in modern-day society. Predicting whether that’s crypto, gold, or something else entirely remains a challenge, but with COVID-19 rapidly increasing the pace of societal change, the answer will come sooner rather than later.
After the reset stock markets will be on blockchain, open 24/7 and immune from state interference.

It's akin to saying someone should buy penny shares because they're cheap.

The next bull market is already starting and here's why.
- All of the new cash injected by the Fed will push the long term mean to new levels - just like in 2008. Except this time the amount of injection is far higher
- Stock market is not directly tied to the economy as close you think
- Stock market prices are determined by a dozen of instituions and not by economies
- 1 institution, Blackrock, manages $7.4 trillion which is equivalent to 150 million retail investors alone
- Even if the public is bearish, the stock market can be bullish
PS don't listen to me
