MAGA Indicates the Trend of U.S. Stocks

Due to the impact of the novel coronavirus, crude oil fell, gold rose, and interest rates declined (bonds rose), with other asset classes moving plainly into risk-off mode, but U.S. stocks continued to stay robust. On February 24, the Dow finally fell 1,031.61 dollars, a drop of 3.6%.

Since 2018, a decline exceeding 3% has occurred three times (over three periods). After the 4.6% plunge on February 5, 2018, ending the Goldilocks market of 2017, a further 4.2% drop was recorded three days later on February 8. Additionally, after the U.S. 10-year yield rose above 3.2% and triggered a 3.2% drop on October 10, 2018, the Dow fell cumulatively 4.5% over the next 13 trading days. In this way, major shocks are often followed by aftershocks, so an unsettled market environment will continue for the time being.
