The layoffs and furloughs haven't even rally begun in earnest. It takes a month for a ship to get from Asia to North America. The supply disruptions are just kicking in:

I think it could very well be a "dead cat bounce". The market was overvalued, and we're in an extremely long bull market that was looking for an excuse IMO.
