Ya, but if there are way more sellers than buyers that means that prices are inflated. If prices were lower there would be more buyers, but sellers want to keep their asset prices inflated so they don't lower prices. Assets that are priced properly don't have the problem of having too many sellers. I think calling it asset destruction is slightly disingenuous. Just because the price is lower doesn't mean the asset is destroyed. Even if we are talking about a stock selling for 50% less, it is still a share in company ownership.

Who is forcing anyone to sell at rock bottom?
