Coronavirus, un séisme qui a débuté à Wuhan/Chine, dont les répercussions sont sans mesures sur le système capitalisme. Qui aurait crû que la peur aurait cet effet désastreux sur l’économie mondiale avec seulement 135000 personnes infectées et 4900 morts.

It'll be down another 2000 tomorrow

These are times Presidents step to the podium and calm nerves And assure swift and urgent solutions to the virus Unfortunately, American leadership is visibly missing in action both HOME and abroad

There goes my 401K

I think they should shut the stock market down until further notice and focus on medical care and give more attention to people instead of money. This is the market's wake up call. Will it ever?

should be worried of a worldwide recession?

So. Tired. Of. Winning

THANKS TRUMP!!

CNN gleefully reports

Stocks fall again on Wall Street as wild swings continueStocks are sinking again, wiping out most of a huge rally from a day earlier as Wall Street continues to reel from worries about the coronavirus. Investors are still waiting for details promised by President Trump on potential aid for the economy. He’s surrounded himself with nothing but unqualified sycophants, and he, himself, doesn’t possess a single atom of true leadership in his body. This is the moment where every greedy, racist fool that’s supported him will have to come to grips with his inability to weather this. Y'all proud of yourselves in the media Yeah where the hell ARE those details, Mr. President?!?!?! South Korea has over 10k test kits. Maybe we should go study their leadership style and health care system. COVID19 CoronavirusUSA
