What uncertainty?

Russia is a known catastrophe that destroys wealth and is "led" by a bumbling alcoholic. Russian people will suffer the most as ruble turns into toilet paper and black market thrives on misfortune. Russian effect on world markets is of negligible nature, yet it wipes billions of market cap because of fear. Market has discounted this uncertainty, which is now fact.

Japan is led by plodding ministers who have no conviction to do anything. Their country is in recession and will stay there for the next 3 years. Markets will eventually completely discount this contagion.

Rest of Asia will sink into recession, dragging Latin American countries along for the ride. Emerging economies follow the leaders.

No uncertainty, the world markets are in the process of cratering. The USA remains a bastion of strength but fear replaces greed when it looks like the end of the world.
