I think it will take 2 solid years to come back from this. It is what it is.

Some small and large businesses will close up for good. New businesses will be created. Jobs will be lost and then created. Everything will recover, it will just be slow. Perhaps this virus will teach some larger companies to better plan and hold reserves rather than over-leverage themselves. The market was over-valued before this happened. Probably 10-15% over-valued. Maybe the rose-colored glasses can now be tossed in the trash.

Governments need to learn from this. It could have been a more dangerous/deadly virus.

I think you're spot on
