How FXE held up in past market crashes
FXE has been through 4 of the market crashes since 2000 in our data. Its deepest price fall was 22.0% in the 2008 financial crisis, when the S&P 500 fell 56.5%. Its price had not yet regained that high by the latest close (price only, not counting the dividends or interest it paid). No fund is safe from losses; past falls do not predict future ones.
