No doubt this is a possibility. Viruses can live on surfaces other than flesh for many days. Cold viruses have been shown to survive on indoor surfaces for approximately seven days. Flu viruses, however, are active for only 24 hours. All viruses have the potential to live on hard surfaces, such as metal and plastic, longer than on fabrics and other soft surfaces. Goods that are made in China and sent to the US could easily be contaminated. Just about everything you touch in Walmart has the potential to to be affected. Wouldn't be a bad idea to wash if possible items you buy from overseas and even from those made here in the US. Just a thought.

'Ya reckon it's possible Rat and Hedge help set this record??
As an old geezer myself, I'm starting to feel for the guy. Can't imagine Biden trying to negotiate trade deals and deal with terrorism. Just one of many reasons why WE need Trump to lead this country.

Trumps trade deals? You've got to be joking. Dealing with terrorism? You've lost your god damn mind grandpa.

Wild week on Wall Street. Net/net it was positive, but the fluctuations back and forth were crazy. Lost some on apple this week to lower my gains from last Friday. Still netted positive on the move, but not as excited about trading as last week this time.
Great article, Crotch. There's nothing going on in the country right now more important than calling out these crazy California liberals for trying to pass stupid bills that only affect California. Great catch. Glad you're on it...

It's starting to get beyond stupid thanx to these moronic liberal democrats.....
If that CA bill somehow passes, get back to us. Then I'll regale you with some crazy shit that has been written into law in my very red home state. Meanwhile your president keeps lying his ass off about the health crisis we've found ourselves in.

The dow is going to be on fire this morning. And when I say fire I say dumpster fire. Thanks Trump!

What could Trump do to prevent the Dow from tanking?

Probably not much, at least in the short term, but I think it's pretty obvious that the market has zero confidence in this clown's ability to understand what's going on, much less take the necessary steps to calm the fears of the general population. In fact, just the opposite. Stupidity of his kind will always find a way to make bad situation worse, and it seems the market agrees...

seems like this started going south when the Fed did an emergency rate cut
I would think they don't have confidence in the Fed
I just don't think there was much Trump could do. He tells everyone to be calm, this is under control and then the Dems line up to tell the world they need to be running around with their hair on fire.
My company just canceled 2 $3m events, South by Southwest is cancelled , NCAA tourney, Olympics, air travel, cruises all in jeopardy. The media is reporting the number of cases reported on the hour nonstop.
What is any sitting president going to do to instill calm against that? Triple the amount of test kits that are being sent out to confirm its widespread and been here for weeks?
The only way the markets rebound is when life returns to normal. Panic in the market place isn't going to allow that.
I'm convinced the Democrats wanted this. Nothing is going to change my mind.
