Mitchell_AB Overbought market uses virus excuse.

Many investors were making that face this week. And this entire year as well.

Because the media freaks everyone out by making this virus worse then what it is.. it needs contained yes but 83k infected 79k of them in China 2300k in S Korea

Why does always show pics of traders with their heads in their hands, or sad looks when the market is down? You know they're shorting! CNBC should post some pics of the bears with big smiles on their faces and huge thumbs up, on days when the market is getting crushed! LOL

Ponzi scheme
