We are counting on you being right. I'm very concerned that this ***** virus will trigger a global recession, maybe not as severe as the last one but that it'll be 7 years before we see the S&P 500 back above 3300. Of course a Trump victory in November could save our 401K's! Edited February 27, 2020 by keepthefaith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Fear over the spread of the coronavirus tightened its grip on global markets Friday, with stocks across Europe and Asia plunging a day after the worst rout on Wall Street since 2011. Equity futures pointed to yet more pain at the New York open, and investors diving into safe assets sent Treasury yields to new depths. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-02-27/stock-slump-to-extend-in-asia-on-virus-fears-markets-wrap?srnd=premium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first things to be moved should be pharmaceutical manufacturing. We will come out of this a better nation once this virus is behind us. Exactly. As it pertains to the economy and our long term security as a nation the coronavirus may be a blessing in disguise. Trump was right on the money early in his first term about regaining the ability to produce steel here in the USA for national security reasons. There are other items like you mentioned with pharmaceuticals. There probably should be a review regarding critical products and if we're producing them ourselves. If we're not producing them then we need to consider incentives for the private sector to start producing them in the U.S. Not only will it make us more secure but it'll boost our economy and reduce our trade deficit.

Well, so, you willing to accept more immigrants into the country to fill those jobs in manufacturing? That would be a lot of jobs and we are already short workers Factory workers are open to unionization, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore, put a plant or 2 on the south side of Chicago (and in other similar job starved areas) where people need opportunities and not just for line workers but for supervisors, plant engineers, equipment maintenance people, quality control people and others. Manufacturing facilities are fantastic job creation and upward mobility tools. Chicago as a sanctuary city employs more than 100K illegal immigrants meaning the dem pols that run the place blatantly allow non-citizens to take jobs that residents badly need. The citizenry unfortunately continues to elect the same type of leaders. ***** all of them too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPS Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 On 2/21/2020 at 11:50 AM, TPS said: Looks like virus fears will force the Fed to act on the downside again. The 10-year treasury is once again lower than the 3-month, creating an inversion of the yield curve. Despite recent comments by Fed officials that they are content with their current target rate, they won't have a choice. Their next meeting is mid-March. The 10-year was just under 1.4% when I posted this, and it's 1.07 this morning. It will break 1% soon enough. The Fed will cut big time, but it can't stop the recession we're now entering into. I hope this administration is up to the task.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
