“Dow: 10,000...really”
I remember that post, I was thinking will it do it. I am thinking 18000 once investor realize how long the lock downs will be. Maybe 16000 lowest if lock down is more then 4 weeks. Then again you might be right with 10000.
Will watch closely

Strictly by the numbers, the coronavirus does not register as a dire global crisis. It won’t until it does, because that’s the way with exponential growth.

Sept/Oct is when they ship. Can’t be shipped outside US and “This product does not ship to the following states: ID, HI, AA, AE, AP, AS, FM, GU, MH, MP, PR, PW, VI.”
I recognize some of those State abbr. Rest must be US territories.

The first half of the downturn is dealing the immediate impacts, and that’s mostly priced-in. The second half of the downturn concerns the VERY, VERY, slow recovery out of this. It will have to be slow, otherwise the virus will keep popping up, and there will be fits and starts, as government tries to loosen up a bit and the disease comes back...then back to lockdown.
That second half is NOT yet priced-in, the working thought is that in 2 months, this will all just be a bad memory and things will be as they were. They won’t.

I don’t dare post wuhan virus related news or post in wuhan virus related FR threads anymore. It’s like posting a conservative view at DU.
I don’t think people are realizing how awful it will be that the president of Brazil tested positive. I posted another tweet saying that hours ago but wasn’t sure of the source.
Bolsanaro and President Trump spent time together, shook hands etc. last Saturday. Bolsanaro first test positive. now waiting for second.
God bless our president.
Thanks!

All meals will be pre-bagged. Menu options served will minimize touch exposure by wearing disposable gloves and using pre-wrapped food products when available. Disposable products such as utensils, napkins and plates will be utilized.
The District is permitted to share several days of meals at a time, so a weekly (or every three days, etc.) pick up/distribution schedule will be established. Communication regarding pick up times and locations will be shared via our emergency notification system (phone calls and emails), district and school websites, social media, television, and newspaper.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Pa. (CBS) — Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf is ordering mass closings in Montgomery County in an effort to curb the spread of the coronavirus in the county. During a press conference Thursday, Wolf says the closures include all schools, gyms, community centers and entertainment venues.
The state is taking “significant and decisive social distancing” and will begin putting the plan into effect tomorrow. It will last 14 days in an effort to control the spread of COVID-19.
>>> This now means that King County has now matched, in less than 3 weeks, all the flu deaths in the county since 1 Oct 2019.
I need to use that data in an email I’m writing to family and friends about this. Can you tell me where you got that info?
