I’m not worried about the markets. I’m disappointed in our President seemingly being caught flat-footed on this.
Let’s hope his response ramps up. Folks I know it’s just theater and not much of substance can be done other than what’s in motion. Doesn’t matter. It’s a drama-driven electorate.
My concern about the slow-motion response is not for worry about the market. It’s the political angle I’m concerned about.
We know the other side will do whatever it takes to crash the market hoping panic and pain will rub off and make nervous people vote their way.
Far more worrisome is the idea of this being the long game. Crash the markets so hard that the voters put a Socialist in charge to “fix the markets” by removing that awfully pesky private enterprise and free competition.
I wouldn’t bet against it. How many voters do you think understand the function of capital markets? Hint: it’s not just to have something to put in your 401(k).
Just sayin . . .

I agree, AND, PDJT should call out Rosenstein’s sister, and, that folks are manipulating market...
If the MSM ask him about his sources, he can say, “I know and it is classified”...I’m serious, CALL THEM OUT!!!
The biggest danger in all of this mess is the naive, gullible, and typical American slob who votes based on emotion.
That gave us Obama in 2008. It might give us crazy commie Sanders as well.
Your fears and post have data to back it up. If this ‘virus’ doesn’t fizzle out and people start dropping by the dozens, it’ll be past time for praying.
He was not caught “flat footed” the stupid MSM just did not talk about what was being done.
