It's never a good feeling when you look at your portfolio and see that everything is going down. And while we all hope that the markets are always on the up, because it means that our investments would be doing well, the markets do go down, otherwise known as a market crash. 

Stock market crashes do happen and have happened, and the effects are far reaching. At the same time, world events such as Covid and unrest, have a big impact on the market too. Join The Simple Sum team as we talk about some of the biggest stock market crashes in the world, what happens when the market crashes, and what this means for us as investors.
