Monday quite a few people were excited because they thought an up day meant the virus & the resulting economic fallout was all over and behind us.
I didn’t have the heart to explain what’s called a “deadcat bounce” and that the bad news will keep coming for likely months. One day filled with hope, albeit totally false, was probably a nice respite for many.
Is there some point when there is a halt to trading. I know almost nothing about the market, maybe a dumb question.
