We're assuming the crash in March was due to COVID - though there's no proof this was the case. This very much could have been a correction to more realistic valuation.

Agree here - I think we're in for an interesting year. We may have amplified the upswing dynamics with Fed action, but I'm pretty sure we'll see amplified downswings, as a result.

I get what you are saying but cmon. We very well may have had a recession without covid but covid has certainly majorly shaped what our current economic situation looks like.
