A Wall Street analyst cut his stock price targets for exhibitors and projected the 2021 box office would fall about 20 percent below 2019 levels. He also expects a 'gradual' return to business after the coronavirus pandemic.' More details:

"We are less certain that studios will wait for the perfect date to release their films — as that perfect date may never arrive," says Eric Wold."And if studios are concerned around the health of their exhibitor partners, they may not choose to wait much longer."

He also argued that a gradual opening of cinemas, starting in markets where that is possible, could "bolster sentiment" amid investors. The analyst in his report highlighted that he has in recent months expressed "concerns around a state of flux for the second-half 2020 film release calendar and the inability of major exhibition chains to reopen theaters profitably without new film content."

Stocks are resilient because investors have been braced for much worse COVID-19 news, says strategistStocks will be resilient to COVID-19, according to this strategist, because of the Fed's help, the cost cutting happening across every industry and the anticipation of a V-shaped recovery. So, my question is, with the S&P down a paltry 1% YTD, are we really only 1% worse off than we were on January 1? My gut tells me no, and this house of cards the market has constructed will not end well. Because the pandemic will, eventually, end and life and business will go on.
