Coronavirus Threat To U.S. Economy, Trump 2020
Nearly overnight, conventional wisdom about the 2020 outlook — solid growth for the U.S. economy, no Fed interest-rate moves, and President Trump's reelection — has gone out the window.

Big mistake, LOLOLOLOLOL...the Empora finally see's his tiny dick, he's naked!! LOLOLOLOLOLO

Right now our main concern is person to person transmission through the air. However, we do not know to what degree it is spread by contact of objects that are handled by people that are infected. Hundreds of billions of dollars in goods being imported from China require extensive handling by workers in China this could be a healthcare and financial risk to the US. In major retail outlets like Walmart and Target, a lot of the products are handled by workers in China before being shipped. The question researchers need to answer is how long does the virus survive outside of a host and how do environmental conditions effect the virus.

My friend, you're too smart, logical and level headed for this hellhole.

Unfortunately, many people on this forum lack the ability to discuss political issues because they can't consider ideas and opinions that differ from their own. They typically read only enough of a post to categorize the poster and reply with a cut and paste diatribe. The fact is both conservatives and liberals have good points.

I don't see many smart, fiscal cons with good points on this board. What I see mostly bagmen for the Dumpster who will repeat (ad nauseam) endlessly each and every one of Dear Leader's 17,000 lies.

But hey, hope springs eternal for intellectual conservatism. IMHO it died with Trump.

Keep in mind that forums such as these attract conservative and liberal ideologues, not free thinkers. Most people would not be able to debate both sides of a political issue because they only want to consider one side. If you put yourself in the other person's shoes, then the issues are not so clear and clarity is what people want.

Agree, but the question remains - WTF happened to intellectual conservatism? WF Buckley spins in his grave!

It died with the bush boy.

You’re not an experienced investor, are you

I am. Not just an experienced investor but my education and degree is in accounting and finance.

The problem isn't here in America.

The problem is in Asian countries where most of the manufacturing has been relocated.

Japan has closed all schools until April. China has bordered off cities. South Korea is being hit hard and it's now in our military there in South Korea.

If the places where the manufacturing of our goods are harmed from this, it harms American business. Thus the problem with the stock market.

All we can do is wait and see what happens.

Trump isn't responsible for the economy; no President is. It's determined by consumption spending, period. Shuffling accounts doesn't increase nor decrease economies, neither does creative bookkeeping; all that does is produce the mounds and mounds of inaccurate and outright fake data, is all. That fake news can generate 'bubbles' in both directions, as people make decisions based on that rubbish to greater or lesser extents. Bubble economies aren't real economies.

Trump's foreign policies create hope for a rebuilding of our own economy, encouraging growth at home. Since he 'settled' with the Red Chinese scum, that hope may gradually dwindle, or the Red Chinese will do something stupid and start an even bigger wave of cash returning. It's really up to the Red Chinese and other countries at this point.

No one should care what the gamblers think; the virus crap has little to do with economics, it's just gamblers using it as an excuse to make wild bets, as usual.

The virus is triggering a stock market decline. If it causes investors and businesses to question market valuation, projected earnings, and major capital outlays then it can lead to a real deterioration in the economy.

Too much of our economy is dependent on workers in Asia to make our products.

Our manufacturing is too dependent on parts from Asian countries.

All pure capitalism does is create monopolies which stop competition and innovation. It creates two classes, a very small but filthy rich and a large poor and barely getting by.

Bubbles and bursts are all caused by those who own and control the corporations. For examples of that look at what happened in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Roosevelt had to get the government to break up those companies. Standard Oil being the most infamous. But look at what happened with Carnegie with steel and at Homestead. Rockefeller was able to destroy a railroad. All of them were able to manipulate the market. They caused crashes and recessions with their greed. It happened again in the 1920s when conservative economics allowed companies to not be properly regulated. hoover made it worse with his conservative economics of austerity and more deregulation. So that by 1932 the nation and world were very deep in depression. FDR was elected to clean the mess up. He had most of the nation out of depression by 1937 with some pockets still in depression. Then the war happened which revitalized those remaining pockets of the nation.

Unregulated capitalism destroys economies and nations just as extreme communism and socialism. Unfortunately conservatives have become extremists.

The Trump economy has set a new record! This week was the fastest S&P 10% drop in history!

 

[San Souci]

Looks like the OP will be popping more bottles of champagne tonight.

It seems Democrats LOVE the virus. As long as it causes a crash ,they love it. Because the New Democrat wants to destroy the USA. Just like in the 60's.

It seems like the Democrats know Trump is not prepared. Trumpettes are too stupid to care.

Democrats just want Gov't control of everything. That is why they want filthy illegals here. Those stupid brutes are used to Gov't control/

 

[ABikerSailor]

Well, after the press conference that Trump gave last night, no wonder the investors are in a panic. Trump downplayed the danger, basically said that everything is okay.

Only problem, that is the exact opposite of what the CDC said. Then there was the part where he said Pence was in charge, which confused quite a few reporters.

So lets say you are in a crowded theatre that has smoke coming from a speaker, should you stand up and yell "FIRE" then run like hell out of the place? Or should you carefully approach someone who knows and tell them something might be wrong so there wont be panic and people could get hurt? You would yell fire?

I wouldn't ignore the problem and pretend that everything is okay.

Well, interestingly enough, after Trump told us that everything was okay and there was nothing to worry about, today we find out that virus test kits are in short supply, as well as there are some out there that aren't working properly.

Yep, Trump has everything under control. If we keep "winning" like this, I'm gonna get tired of it soon.

Trump has no clue & has done nothing.


Investors are bailing not just because of the virus but also they know Trump has not done shit.

Trump is more worried about the stock market than people getting sick.

Democrats running around making panic out of what should not be panic, as usual. This is another flu. No one wants it. It's not fun. Fever and coughing is bad and not fun. But it's not Ebola people. My goodness.

 

[Snouter]

I was basically all cash until a few days ago. The past few days, got back in, still cautious though. Chipotle for example. I cannot figure out why that stock is so high even after the pull back. I mainly play boring bank stocks that give dividends and although will never run up like a Chipotle, have consistent ups and downs in a small range that are playable. So although no big reward, minimal risk and a 5% dividend annualized should one hold the stock for 3 months or more, etc.

Well, these hysterical morons have no capacity for thought, and their media Hive tells them to run around blaming Trump for everything in the world, so now they run around claiming he's not personally packing some kind of kits or other, but of course they themselves are personally doing absolutely nothing but crying and sniveling like 9 year olds.

Sorry, but Trump has drained the CDC & never replaced the pandemic response team. THAT is his fault.

The idea that now he tries to do something about supplies shortages is his fault.

The idea he appoints total unsuitable people to run the various departments is his fault.

Instead of action, Trump lied to the American people.

Putting Pence in charge is his fault. Sending Pence to go on Rush Limbaugh who says the Coronavirus is like the common cold is Trump's fault.
