Significantly, the Shanghai index, which had been holding steadily [and suspiciously], finally broke down with a decisive 3%+ downward move. This is a worldwide move.

[As for Monday, or next week, a bounceback should be expected. However, we have a strong, downward trend which is unlikely to reverse anytime soon. Corona virus, overinflated bubbles in a lot of places, the trump diseases, etc., all point downward for awhile, imo].
