It is still too early to call but the 23rd March 2020 might just have marked the bottom for the collapse in growth asset prices due to COVID-19.
The sectors that comprise the MSCI World Index (Morgan Stanley Capital International) include Energy, Financials, Industrials, Real Estate, Utilities, Materials, Consumer Discretionary, Telecommunication, Consumer Staples, Information Technology and Health Care and they have all bounced up significantly.

This does not mean that economic downturn (most likely a World recession) is over, we are only at the beginning of a period of heavy job losses but the worst of the collapse in growth asset prices maybe all over.
