The disease has killed more than 1.4 million people worldwide and there are 61 million confirmed cases, according to data gathered by Johns Hopkins University.. Many retailers are beefing up their safety protocols, moving their doorbuster deals online and offering curbside pickup options as a last grasp at sales before the year ends.

Tech shares have led the market’s climb back from its plunge in March as investors bet giants such as Apple and Microsoft will keep raking in the profits whether Americans are forced to stay home or the economy begins to return to something resembling normalcy. Apple rose 0.5%.
