I would imagine that a ton of huge companies will plummet in value or even crash and burn, with so many high-profile arrests in the business world (including many surprise arrests we didn't see coming). I have no doubt in my mind that this will be better for the economy in the long run, but for many people who are invested in funds that include hundreds of companies, the thought occurred to me to hold onto my finances personally these next few months.

Any nudge in the right direction would be much appreciated! I do, of course, understand this is all speculation and theory, as stock markets are unpredictable even when we can anticipate other things that might affect it.
