The opening odds start here
One tweet swings overnight futures 350 points in the wrong direction.
well? what was it?One tweet swings overnight futures 350 points in the wrong direction.
Lets hope it works out.I expect the Texas governor is going to be real popular. Getting things back to normal.
BMC health published an epidemiology report noting the social distancing is based on infections with higher than normal casualty rates. The new info we are getting on Corona is that although it is highly contagious there are large numbers of people with little or no symptoms so the mortality rates are way lower than what some experts believed at first.Lets hope it works out.
You need food. You need gas in your car. You need to pay bills such as utilities. You need these things to function and live. You need businesses to open again too but at what cost? If jails and prisons are letting out criminals albeit low level ones, its safe to say this thing is no joke.
If it turns out the virus is far more widespread than thought(apparently 2 test runs of antibody testing have already shown that), then the virus is far less deadly than thought, more on a par with the normal flu.You need food.

Basically yes, with modifications for a little while. cant you see that our economy is being destroyed? that is far, far more important than a disease possibly as deadly as the normal flu running rampant.But Merlin what do you suggest we do? Let the chips fall as they may and reopen all businesses?
The media will have a feeding frenzy hyping every positive they have, should be amusing to watch. Georgia should stop all testing for the virus, then they can have no new cases.Georgia re-opens Friday
We need to stop everything until we restart the economy. doing anything now is just wasted money.bailout of oil companies coming
bailout of oil companies coming
Why? The big companies have a fortress of cash and don't get affected one bit by the nonsense going on in the futures markets. When the shutting down of wells and supply worldwide fully takes effect, the world will be reopening. After a month or two of absorbing all the excess capacity we see now there will be a shortage of oil developing and the oil companies who aren't just big debt plays like some of these shale producers will make a ton of money. The ones going BK right now and probably more coming are heavily indebted so I don't see the government handing them money just to pay off what are going to be bad loans and the idea of keeping workers on when there isn't demand is like the opposite of their instincts. This industry is all about crazy hiring and then one day layoffs.
We need to stop everything until we restart the economy. doing anything now is just wasted money.
Once it restarts, then stimulus and bailouts matter, and help.

Not for you....the check is for oil company bailout... Write a letter to IRS to get yours
There is little public sympathy for oil companies and Dems will raise holy hell if there is a strong push for oil company bailouts. No one really wants to give money to them so the C-level gets paid and their bondholders get paid.
Best outcome is they go under, their employees collect $1k a week on unemployment and investment into the oil patch is very limited for years to come. Why take something out of the ground now when its not making money?
Yes, an absolute joke.Publicly Traded Companies Got $300 Million In Small Business Loans: AP Investigation
Neither the Trump administration nor the lending industry has disclosed a list of Paycheck Protection Program beneficiaries.

It seems to me that the problem with stay at home orders is that not enough people build up immunity....the so called no symptom cases. Now the bureaucrats are telling us we are going to have the same outbreak next flu season. I'm confused.Most places have been under stay at home orders for 5 weeks now, is there any evidence at all that the places that didn't have experienced a surge? It's pretty obvious they dont have any impact.
See, that's the problem, no one said that, the CDC director said it "may" be bad, he has no clue, NONE. All he's doing is covering himself because "well, the spanish flu did 100 years ago", so it could happen again.It seems to me that the problem with stay at home orders is that not enough people build up immunity....the so called no symptom cases.

yes, yes, yes, yes. you're in a dreamworld Wish, people want to and will do all those things. And for those like you, you can stay inside forever.Whoever pushed that proposal first has a true understanding of whats at play here.
They have to because life as we know it has changed for a long time, not forever but a long time. You think some grandparents or family will go to Disney any time soon? You think even drunks are going to want sit right next to each other at the bar? You think people are going to run out to restaurants to dine in and eat in a confined space? You actually think people will reserve hotel rooms like they did before? I dont give a shit if you're established or not, its not happening soon. Supply and demand, right? How the fuck? You feel my drift. Im not exaggerating on this which means businesses wont need as many workers and the ones they do have will work at a reduced rate most likely.
What the fuck does Vegas think they're going to do? Nobody is going to sit next to anybody at a blackjack table. Nobody is spending mkney to see acts or see anything out there anytime soon.
Everybody on tv just tries to give hope so we all dont turn America into the purge like in that one movie.
