Is 2022 the most volatile/difficult year ever?


I read some article citing some volatility measure, stating that by this measure the 3 most volatile time periods ever were the dotcom bubble, 2008 and now in 2022

Another article tallied all the biggest 1 day moves and 2022 is up there with the some of the highest counts of 1-4% changes in a day ever

You can look at the chart when you take out the massive drop from 2008 and the COVID crash, no other time period has as many zig zags and ups and downs on the chart as 2022, it’s crazy

The post pandemic rally was such a smooth run up to fall of 2021 where it peaked, it was so ridiculously easy to score big fast and now it seems harder than ever to make consistent profits

Is 2022 one of the most volatile and most difficult years ever if not the most?
