Nowadays about 75% of the trading is automated which can cause big price swings. Many years of ultra low interest rates have driven market capitalization very high so stocks prices are currently quite vulnerable to a "Black Swan" of some sort. Is the coronavirus the '''Black Swan''' event that blows up the US market?
