I think she is right. Also a lot of companies will move some of their factories.. Not sure if China will recover.
The Chinese factories are already back into production. It appears that the coronavirus has peaked in China. Also thank you President Trump for making America oil independent.
I’m both counting on this and gambling on it.

Say what?
The thing about a manufactured crises is that it is not real. I think once that becomes more obvious we’ll recover. Maybe not as fast as the down turn happened, but we we’ll recover by summer.
The Supply Chains are mostly still running on stuff that was in Process. Many of them are still going to crash...
Until China can get things moving again.
We have not seen the bottom of the market, yet.
Its a manufactured MEDIA panic because they need something, ANYTHING to hurt Trump..and I hope that most sane people in this country give the Dem party what they deserve in November for inciting a panic for political gain
If gasoline is $2.00 per gallon instead of $3.25, you have more money left over after you fill your tank.
Two aspects of this:
1) the virus and its morbidity. It’s real and is being dealt with. It is legitimate and necessary to ask if they are dealing with it as efficiently and quickly as should be.
2) the use of this virus as a political tool through hyped panic. The problem with this one for those hyping it for political reasons is, like Collusion and Ukraine, sooner or later it becomes put up or shut up time. Sooner or later the hype has to match reality. And when that doesn’t happen, it’s hell on the hype merchants.
The good news is also that the Saudi move with oil may take down the Mullahs in Iran.
It will also damage Putin’s ability to direct oil profits to his military buildup.
Look who is getting weakened the most by this virus: The ChiComs, The Iranians and the Russians.
The situation could have a lot of beneficial results, assuming it doesn’t spiral into The End, which I hope it does not.

That’s the price of a gallon of gas at a given time, not the cost of living.
Biden is more vulnerable than Bernie here by far.
I'm tempted to make a buy.
Well, “cost of living” is typically defined as what a typical consumer spends on food, fuel, housing, clothing, etc. Mike Mliken’s point was the prices of some of those are down.
