If this were January perhaps you would have a prayer of being right.

 

This thing will near dead by the end of May...re-open or not.

 

No one thinks is will be dead by May.

You fearmongers really need to stop...

 

Even the IHME, who by the way seems to be doing a somehwat better job in their predictions as time goes on, after their horrendously absurd start, shows this thing is in the terminal phase.

NY reported 41 deaths yesterday, which could be an aberration on the low side, but the downward spiral is on.

USA as a whole had 2nd consecutive day under 1.02 yesterday.

 

Once viral curves get this low they are fully cooked.

 

Just mop up duty now...

People who know the stock market know that you should listen to what it is telling you NOT what you want to believe.

Also, the stock market runs on expectations; a positive opening of the states is baked into it now.  When that doesn't happen it falls.

Fear and shutdowns.

 

Where Trump is failing is his messaging and managing expectations.

 

The closedown was to flatten the curve.

 

More infections and deaths are expected with the opening.  

 

BUT, the news media is portraying this as we should not have either.

 

When it happens; some governors and the media will be calling for another shut down or something similar.

 

People will not go out.

 

The market will fall.

 

ALSO, if Trump gets sick, especially if he goes into the hospital, it will make the decline worse.

Finally, it is dumb to think an empty middle seat will do anything.

 

Those old enough to remember when smoking on planes was coming to an end.  They had smoking sections.  When the smokers lit up the smoke traveled throughout the plane.

 

Here it comes ... first China
