My sense, Virus is everything now a days and all eyes are on the mother (US) of stock markets. It make sense to investors and there is a strong reason to worry about. Because, 1) the much awaited vaccine is at least 1 year away 2) possibility of more spread of disease and deaths in the absence of vaccine 3) therefore more lock down measures that eventually hit the economies. Global economy will surely enter into some kind of recession and the recovery may take more time. It is simple, if the virus spread is not contained, no amount of central bank action is enough.
