I stopped following Drudge a couple of years ago. Haven’t missed it.
Derivative unwinding is one of the ‘black swan’ scenarios to take down our entire financial system.
Makes me wonder if this really WAS a bioweapon released on purpose.
Allow it to ‘force multiply’ in China and then it becomes impossible for Western nations to stop.
And gives plausible deniability to the bad guys.
Then insurance ends. And everyone invested loses all invested in them.
And it starts a cascade of calls on every conceivable type of paper/digital “asset” mankind has been able to devise to date.
Until everyone realizes there is only the Fed and real property and machines and buildings that are remaining.
Hey, you asked...
Titles become dodgy at that point.
And gold/silver do too. You can’t eat those.
Trade stops.
No municipal water chemicals.
Who moves the ag chemicals they need?
Spare parts for their equipment?
The credit system that underlies our entire transportation economy would fail. Need food? Sry.
Who pays the electric company employees? Do they stay home now?
It gets insane at that point thinking of the ‘well...geee...now what...’
Completely rekt.
The Mail on Sunday reports Mark Watson, president of the British Laryngological Association, shared the grim news in a letter to members: “It does appear that ENT specialists are particularly prone to virus exposure, and we have two examples of severe infection within the UK: two ENT consultants have required intensive care unit admission this week.”

Interesting theory.
I can’t disagree with the possibility of any of it.
ChiComs could care less...about their losses/collateral damage.

We couldn’t afford to build or replace any military equipment.
Or pay any military either.
We would be Russia circa 1992.
*** Have you heard the twitter rumors that TX may lockdown, this evening? ***
Heard it from someone who’s not on Twitter. Guess we will know in 2 hrs-twenty minutes
“And there is no way that the problem is over in China”
Agreed.
England’s Rugby World Cup winner Will Greenwood has confirmed his Aunty Jean has died after contracting coronavirus.

Yep.
How’s mom?
How are you?
You just need to slow them down. The rest of us bought supplies slowly over 6 weeks just so the distribution chain was not affected.
I dont even read titles. Lol. They usually have nothing to do with the data.

my very life today”
“The case involving 12-year-old Emma, relayed by a relative, is particularly concerning as COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus, so far has been less likely to seriously strike the youngest members of the population.”
There are increasing numbers of younger folks getting this. The initial data was skewed by the demographics of the international jet set and cruise line clients.
It has the same age distribution as the flu (per Dr. X), just a larger amplitude.
