S&P 500: History Repeating Itself? Comparing Recovery Models After the Crises of 2008, 2020, and 2025
Image comparing the price behavior of S&P 500 during three major crisis periods:
2008: After the Lehman Brothers collapse, the market lost confidence and plummeted.
2020: The COVID-19 pandemic caused the market to crash sharply but quickly recovered with the Fed's intervention.
2025: A sudden crash at the beginning of the year with a recovery pattern almost “carbon copy” of the previous two cycles.
The common feature of these three models is: A sharp decline in a short time but a quick and strong recovery with a distinct V-shape structure.
Foreign stocks have risen from 600 points (2008) to 6000 points (2025). I challenge you to guess how many points our market will increase 😂😂
