You are confusing crash with a correction.

A crash is a sudden move. A correction can take years.

Read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stock_market_crash

A stock market crash is a sudden dramatic decline of stock prices across a significant cross-section of a stock market, resulting in a significant loss of paper wealth. Crashes are driven by panic as much as by underlying economic factors. They often follow speculative stock market bubbles.
