IIRC, wasn’t this a plot device in one of Tom Clancy books? ‘The Bear and the Dragon’??
Kind of, and I don't think it was the Bear and the Dragon, it was Debt of Honor I believe.
In that situation, they scrambled the stock market computers, so nobody knew what actually happened... So they just set it back. Still stupid, but at least a little understandable.
Bear and the Dragon involved a pandemic though, and some very pissed off Americans.
