Doubtful. If the anti-Trump “They” could tank the market, they clearly would have when the Left was trying to tell us a recession was imminent last year.

But they couldn’t do it then, in spite of clearly trying their best, so why would they suddenly be able to do it now?

We’re still above 29,000 and having typical volatility in the midst of a potential global pandemic. Some companies are getting hammered as a result of quarantines and entire cities being shutoff, and we’re still having just as many up days as down days, and all economic indicators are still trending up.

The Coronavirus can cause concern, but it can’t cause companies who are making money to stop paying dividends and hiring people and making more money.

The only way the market tanks is if we have a nuclear event somewhere of importance. A dirty bomb or a meltdown that ruins or logjams an economic sector or three.

Aside from that, there’s nothing physically in the way to prevent economic growth. People have jobs and more money. People are spending that money. Companies are making profits and hiring more people. Etc etc. And there’s nothing imminent that’s disrupting that cycle.

On top of this, trade deals have only just started kicking in and working, and we haven’t come close to actualizing those benefits yet, even. And, more companies are moving to/moving back to the US. Hell, the Coronavirus might actually help expedite corporate inversions TO the US.

Immigration is still improving and more and more low skilled full time jobs are coming available for out of work citizens. The labor participation rate continues to rise while jobless claims and unemployment stay steadily low.

Regulations are still getting cut, and off-shore money is still being repatriated.

“They” can’t do anything to stop this. “They” already tried and failed. And have you been watching all their other failings?? Russiagate, Mueller, Ukrainegate, Impeachment, Recessiongate, the clowns they have as candidates....

“They” are incompetent boobs who can’t rig a fricking Iowa primary right, for Christ’s sake.

“They” sure as shite can’t cause a market collapse either.

When people lock themselves inside their homes to avoid crowds, etc and businesses and schools shut down to prevent the spread of this virus, the flow of commerce comes to a complete stop. This will completely destroy the stock market and the economy that supports it. "They" have initiated their plan, first in China, where many of the products we purchase are made, or are a part of, then, it appears, in Iran, and more recently, Italy. They intend to take this nation down and you'll see their efforts with your own eyes as the election itself approaches. They want us scared of crowds which will diminish the vote to the point where they can steal another election. They want us dissatisfied with the economy, Trump's biggest achievement. They want us dead. Wake up.
