Signs we are about to have a problem: 1. The price of gold shares have jumped. 2. The buying of Treasuries spiked and the return dropped to a record low. 3. Charts showing ground movement of goods hit the bottom.

The big boys are suppressing the truth about all of this in an attempt to get their money/assets moved or sold to protect THEIR interests, the little guy be damned.

Very good question and answer info at link with expert.

Haavahd is a little behind the times. The “official” COVID-19 website which parrots information coming out of the Chinese Communist Party now shows over 67,000 cases and over 1500 deaths.

The reality is much worse.

The coronavirus costs a lot of money and has no upside. The virus stops people from working productively.

So, OF COURSE there is an impact on the economy, just as any other phenomenon that costs money, has no advantages, and keeps people from working.

Business School’s Shih expects disruptions for nations trading with China and for manufacturers dependent on it for components for electronics, consumer products, and pharmaceuticals.

No kidding Dick Tracy.

This is, or should be, obvious to anyone paying attention to the news coming out of China. I am amazed that the markets are as stable as have been. Hard for me to believe that will continue.

Was this little virus the global deep state’s last ditch effort to prevent the reelection of Donald Trump?

Likely to? LIKELY to??? It's already done enough damage to Chinese manufacturing to do so!

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

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%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Thank you for referencing that article MeneMeneTekelUpharsin. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

"Coronavirus likely to infect the global economy"

So why isn’t flu getting mentioned regarding global economy?

The flu has already killed 10,000 across US as world frets over coronavirus (Feb 3, 2020)

It’s been 100 years since the last truly major for real epidemic. Were it not for international corporations at work in Communist China, there might not have been such a fuss! China has always boasted, in any sort of conflagration, they could lose a few million, ho hum.

Steve Bannon’s excellent coverage of the pandemic:

We now rely on China for the vast majority of our medicines. Even those manufactured in India, etc. A protracted interruption in China’s production will have a serious effect on us.

[Starcitizen]

That’s yet another reason for American manufacturing to get out of the shithole known as Communist China. Donald Trump was right...
