15. Politifact narrowed the definition of "... main street" and didn't mention the Feds committed to buy

... corporate junk bond ETFs meaning ... NO ... corporation can go out of business for lack of being able to borrow funds at low interest rates.

https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/04/investing/fed-junk-bonds-etfs-debt/index.html

That FED commitment fast stopped the index slides downward past 31% because even the worse run companies have money to borrow and didn't have to go out of business now and didn't need to borrow from the PPP ... which they did anyway mind you.

The NASDAQ is even for the year now !!

Get that,

We're about to report Great Depression unemployment and the NASDAQ is even for the year and because of the heavyweight of Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google ("FAANG" stocks) in the other index's IE the reason why the indexes go up on bad broad econ news.

Marc Goldwein is either an idiot or the enemy and should know the FEDs commitment to buy Junk Bond ETFs (which is damn near text book socialism) is what stopped the index slides and now has the DOW going up on bad news
