“The coronavirus is a very, very good reason for President Trump to suspend trade with China.”

the stock market is down precisely because it’s worried about the disruption of China’s annual export to the world of 2.5 TRILLION dollars worth of goods, including supply chain parts and electronic goods .... and your solution is to halt ALL of that instantly, thus precipitating the biggest economic meltdown in U.S. history ...

Yup, that is a problem, and it is holding back reconstruction efforts.

Just imagine the impact of it on markets. 2% dow dip is nothing comparing to it.

Yep, 1929 anyone? Although it would be worse than that.

Guess I'm not retiring this year after all.

No problem as I like my job.

We are going to have at best a down turn.

At worst, a recession.

Supply chains are screwed now. Will be for months. And I am not sure if some will every recover.

That is not even factoring in the deaths. Lose enough key people, and things go dark for a long time.
