The EU, Russia, China, and Japan had plenty of warning since 2001 that this was going to happen.
1 of 2 things could have happened.
1. Thy could have created new economic policy, making it so that these nations weren't so dependent on US markets. And then thosw markets would have crashed, leading to WWIII
or 2. Do what they are doing, and work in orchestration so that the strength of the many different economies prevents one major market from actually crashing and continues with a series of adjustments of a longer period of time.
I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
