Coronavirus Crash

December 2019 was a decade-long high-point for stock markets.
Table below shows the extent to which our savings have lost their value since then.
Hopefully over the next two or three years it will show when our savings recover their value.

Lowest All-share total return index was 5147 on 23rd March 2020 which is 65% of the end 2019 value.
