Which insane democrat finds a way to blame Trump?
-5000 swing is a 9/11 type event
I agree....Perhaps they’ll say it’s due to the impeachment and not the flu scare.
“Where’s Beeks? Where the hell is Beeks?!”
Yeah something must be wrong with that web page.
CNBC is showing down 450
405 is the ‘Average’ it’s possible those numbers are a real swing going to be an interesting day /week ...
That is what I thought even before the virus. The Global Elites want to stop President Trump by crashing the economy. Culling the herd is just a bonus for them. Fear not.. Pray for God to protect us all.
I think we might see 5% drop by the end of the week - if there is no slow down in the virus transmission rate most of the worls is stuck on Kobe news ...
Chinese viruses occur all the time...yeah, we tinfoil hatters are crazy in our talk of this conspiracy. Soros loves people, as does Obama and Jarrett and Chinese dictators...it would make them cry if people died.
Bill Maher is doing a Happy Dance.

The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.

Not to worry. Crazy is the new normal for FR. You ought to see the Libertarians flood onto any threads about dope. They eat crazy for breakfast.
Whatever. Dont sell. Buy if you can.
I could guess just as easily it has to do with the weekend news on Bolton.
