Maybe you missed the ~40% drop it sustained in about a month's time? That happened when it looked like the world was ending and 2 million people were supposed to die in the US. Now that things are looking better, the stock market is improving.

Going from 2M possible deaths to about 60K in the US is what most would consider an improvement.
