Stocks struggle as China virus sparks fear for world economy

Analysts say China’s coronavirus outbreak could possibly curb global GDP growth.

Just after markets closed, US authorities declared a public health emergency, and starting Sunday will ban entry into the country of any foreign national who has travelled to China in the past two weeks, while quarantining Americans who have made the trip. At least 213 people have died and nearly 10,000 people have been infected in China by the novel coronavirus, while fresh cases were found abroad with more than 20 countries now affected.

“It’s increasingly apparent the disease is becoming an economic as well as a public health concern,” they said. Quincy Krosby, chief market strategist at Prudential Financial, said the outbreak has raised doubts about whether growth would accelerate in the aftermath of the US-China trade detente.
