This paper develops results discovered in my analysis of the [[2020 Stock Market Crash]], which spawned a series of Op. Ed. submissions.

==Abstract==

From version 1.2:

I define a stock market crash as the period from an index's prior peak until its recovery. Then measures of its scale are very highly correlated. These correlations suggest that crashes belong to well-defined categories and become increasingly predictable as they progress. Furthermore, being in a crash is then the default state of U.S. stock markets.
