Here's how Trump's coronavirus diagnosis has impacted stock volatility so far

As if 2020 couldn’t get any more dramatic for investors, the news that President Trump and his wife have contracted COVID-19 has injected a fresh dose of uncertainty into the U.S. stock market.

“ The largest hurdle is likely the election,” wrote Lindsey Bell, chief investment strategist at Ally Invest, in a Friday report. Biden currently leads Trump by 7.2 percentage points in a national average of polls by RealClearPolitics. That might seem like an odd statement, considering that Trump is viewed as the business-friendly incumbent while Biden is viewed as newcomer who might tighten regulations and raise taxes, both political stances that investors view as bearish in the short-term for equities.

Matt Gertken, geopolitical strategist at BCA Research, outlined a number of ways in which getting coronavirus could be “good news for Trump’s election odds” with the important caveat being that he survives the illness. “If it gets to a more serious point, Vice President Pence does have a chance. He represents GOP nationalism and economic reflation without Trump’s unpredictable protectionism,” he added.

It won’t because I think that he isn’t sick at all. He may have been infected but not sick. People receive Remdesivir get sever side effects, they throw up,yellow skin and sleep through all times, I never heard dexamethasone given with Remdesivir to a patient either! Fishy!

Not much. It has already been factored in that Dipstick Don will lose the ele. The unknown is how much he will do after to incite chaos and damage

1 - Non-smoker 2 - regular exercise, 3 - Maintain a healthy weight 4 - Avoid alcohol or avoid excessive amounts of alcohol. 5 - get enough sleep 6 - To minimize stress, 7 - Practice proper hand washing and oral hygiene. 2 and 3 are very important.Covid 19 :( ................
