The fact that you dont know how to react or much worse what to do, tells me that you are uncertain about what you want. React on the fact and face that he is gone and embrace the opportunity given before you. If you are afraid of such a great challenge, perhaps you'll be better off working under a new boss. Its your choice to be common or uncommon.

@OP welp! I'm moving to markets, this makes me feel uncomfortable.

Quit? If that was your direct boss and you feel too junior to replace him, I would recommend switching gears to networking with as many people as possible, in other groups/ firms you are interested in. These are interesting times and you should be able to influence your future as much as you can.
