The closing of schools and all public gatherings is the only thing that flattens the curve, and therefore lives.

But nearly everyone will eventually get this virus.

“Brazilian President being tested Lookner”

The way this is going, Nancy may wind up with the top job, after all. But I do wonder if that will be permitted.

Who the hell does he think he is? He’s a nobody right now. A task force? He’s gonna solve this? Jackass. Too bad he went to speech class. He’s messed up only a few times today.

Inflation only happens if people are able and willing to spend money—so if jobs go away nobody has money...

I’d guess to cover margin calls, or profit taking.
Glad I’m not in the market.

Further explanation—folks stop spending on non-essentials—that is deflationary—so money printing can’t fix it..

When you hear terms like “hoarding”, you know the economy is facing deflation.

“I wonder why Gold is still down. This is very inflationary.”

Everyone with brains is converting to cash.

The opposite of inflation, it’s an asset deflation.
