Other major stock indices around the globe experienced a similar drop. The Covid-19 crisis was about to hit and there was great uncertainty among investors, reflected by very volatile stock markets. The corresponding volatility index VSTOXX had its peak on March 16, 2020, with an implied volatility of 86%.To stabilize capital markets and restore the confidence of investors during volatile times, regulators can make use of temporary bans on short sales, i.e., restricting investors in their ability to profit from declining stock prices. This was the case in numerous countries during the financial crisis in 2007-09.
