Pandemic Economics: Virus/Disease-Related Market Crashes Explained in One Minute @OneMinuteEconomics

Uploaded February 2020 | Updated September 2026, 25 minutes ago

In light of the fact that I've received a LOT of questions about this topic recently, I've decided it's time to release a video which explains virus/disease-related market crashes in a calm/rational manner rather than put forth material which induces panic.

As the name suggests, this video will cover pandemic economics and refers to virus or let's say disease-related market crashes in general rather than the specific example everyone is talking about nowadays.

Do I try to predict the future?

No.

Do I resort to doom and gloom in an effort to generate views?

On the contrary, I do the exact opposite.

Through this video, I've taken things one step at a time so as to create a "Virus A" case study for an overly exuberant stock market, in the hope that people will realize what exogenous shocks such as virus/disease-related ones can be blamed for in that particular setting and what they cannot be blamed for.

In a nutshell, this unbiased one minute video explains pandemic economics in a way that should leave little room for interpretation and occasionally, shares some uncomfortable ideas that we have no choice but to tackle :(

$Why Art Investing Is NOT Just for Billionaires - Masterworks Explained in One Minute Far too many people make the mistake of assuming that art investing is somehow limited to an elite investor class. That theres just no room for the average person in this equation. Thus, they end up ignoring assets that most definitely deserve a place in their portfolios. Now to be fair, they do have a point in that for an extended period of time, gaining exposure to the best of the best in terms of art was next to impossible... even if you had copious amounts of money, which is a major IF to begin with. To put it differently, art investing was an option that seemed exclusively intended for the very well-funded and very well-connected. Fortunately, as explained throughout this video, that is not the case anymore thanks to Masterworks. In a nutshell, Masterworks enables the average person to gain exposure to masterpieces in the most literal sense of the word. Picassos, Warhol gems, Basquiats, you name it. The beauty of fractional ownership or the democratization of art investing, depending on how you choose to view things. The end result is that never before has it been easier for the average person to gain exposure to an asset class that beat the already-impressive S&P 500 by well over 100% over the past 25 years, an asset class that is especially attractive in an inflationary environment such as the one we are increasingly finding ourselves in.
