you have just conditioned yourself to a very moronic strategy. you buy "crises" to sell them for profit a short time later. highly risky. it would be better to buy companies in crises that have a very good business model and hold them for the long term out of the crisis. so that the company gives you a share of the cash flow. "if you are not interested in holding on to a share for 15 years, don't buy it in the first place." one of my favorite sayings by Warren Buffett. you can also use the capital market as a casino, but in the casino the bank always wins.
