Whoa there with the false equivalency. Helicopter money would be more helpful than propping up the wealth of the top wealth brackets using price floors through broad scale asset purchases. Literally give away hundreds of billions of dollars to citizens who will spend it
right this minute. Have the
government be economic demand of last resort to steady the ship until people can actually move about again. There will be no inflation to speak of due to how GDP has plummeted over the last few weeks.
Monetary velocity > asset price protection. The stock market isn’t the economy, people producing, consuming, and exchanging fiat in the process are.
