Elliott was a clever man who however did not create the universe. EW principles apply, but exotic happenings can entirely delay them in the time axis, or make them come undone.
For example, I doubt that the market would survive a nuclear war or an asteroid hit, though @haejin might observe that in the end, human psychology remains the same - oscillating between greed and angst.
While what we're witnessing now is just lots of additional waves being generated along with fear and loathing for a month, and then all simply resumes - as @haejin likes to say, the overall count will remainss the same.
As to market cap, it went up by about 1500% last year. Let that sink in.
