Or they found something else to pretend is actually important.
From the point of view of a company whose business is mostly outside of those countries, what does it matter if they recover or not at all? It does not.
Just because a stock takes a hit on a day of bad news does not mean the company itself was actually affected by the news.
The link between "the economy" and the stock market is weak, not strong.

the book the random walk down wall street shows just how weak that link really is. the biggest gains are long before things look better . the higher corporate profits go the smaller the markets gains.
both research by ned davis group and the book a random walk down wall street studied the link between profits and gains and go into this in great detail.
when profits rose more than:
20% the s&p returned a mere 1.3% in gains
10 to 20% saw 5.8% in gains
(-10% to + 10% in profits saw a 9.3% jump in gains
(-10%) to (-25%) drop in profits saw 28.6% gains.
(-25%) and lower saw a -28% drop in share price.
this is exactley why those who think they are going to time their ins and outs get it wrong.

like our 401ks, it's only on paper......
