Dow Jones
Dow Jones was closed during World War One.
Conclusion
- The biggest financial drop was before world War Two, which might have been the cause of the war, rather being the result of it.
- The geopolitical events alone would not be the sole cuase of market downturn.
- The US-China trade caused the market to flutuate from January in 2018 to December in 2019, which was almost 2 year in length. This geopolitiacal event was trade centric and might have strong impact on the stock market.
- Covid-19 outbreak in the early 2020 caused the dow to drop from 29551.42 on 2020/2/12 to 18591.93 on 2020/3/23 which was a 37.09 loss and it took about 1 month and a half to bottom.
- Covid-19 has direct relation to market activity then may be defined as a cause to the market downturn.
- How much would the current Russia-Ukrain Crisis impact the stock market is still be to watched.
