There was an appendix added to the Quantitative Analysis of Non-Linear High Entropy Economic Systems Addendum. The appendix concludes with an analysis of the significant declines in the US equity market indices over the last hundred years-and offers a simple methodology for calculating the severity of the declines. The stochastic evolution of declines in equity market values and economic recessions do, indeed, have shapes.
