Sure this is painful for anyone in the stock market but just think of the pent up demand

Once this virus thing has peaked and it is clearly under control, which WILL happen unless you believe humankind is doomed and we're going back to the dark ages, the pent up demand for goods and services is going to be something to behold.
It will be the largest rush to buy something since the end of World War II.

A lot of people are gonna have issues with money. Businesses are definitely going to have money issues. As usual, you post something without much clear thought to try and sound positive about the market as it continues to sink further. I bet you’ll be fully invested well before the bottom and be unable to take full advantage of the buying opportunity

Russian, I do not understand why they do not close the markets down for a while? There have to be more than 50 people on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange right?
Also, bank stocks were getting crushed today, good time to buy or give it a few more weeks before the bottom?

The first circuit breaker has been implemented.
As the former head of the NYSE said, "It's easy to close the stock market. Knowing when to reopen the market is the hard part." That was Dick Grasso who was head of the NYSE during 9/11 when the market closed for a week.
In spite of the "I told you so" losers who've posted in this thread, this, too, shall pass. And I will be better off than them when it does.

Every major bank halts buybacks. Not surprising. Are dividends next?

Money to be made daily during this time too. MSFT was great for me this morning.

But Mnuchin was on CNBC an hour ago and said the large banks are flush with liquidity unlike the 2008/2009 Great Recession.
The economic shut down would have to last more than one calendar quarter before they cut or suspend their dividends, imo.

DG at 125.12 right when the market re-opened...already sold on the bounce.

Being bearish isn’t popular

There is a difference in being bearish and what you are doing here.

I thought he said they are still solvent right now and there is a lot of question about all the travel and hospitality industry. Companies without cash are going to be a conundrum for the government and this market.

No pain here brother, I have sold zero of my long term holdings and have actually swing traded a bit which is something I dont normally do as I am not that clever.
It has been fun and I have made a few bucks, when ever I feel the time is right I will take those bucks and buy something else to hold a while.
Either the world ends or I come out ahead and I have survived a few ends of the world already.

I have taken HAL and MSFT for several rides after the market tanks. I use those funds plus my normal weekly investment dollars to buy more of my divi stocks/funds that are lower priced.

Sorry for the bump... but i heard a few news conferences yesterday that made me think of LSURussian...
From Trump:
and Mnuchin:
Maybe I'll start paying attention to LSURussian a bit more!

I think there's a tremendous pent-up demand, both in terms of the stock market and in terms of the economy. Once this goes away, once this goes through and we're done with it, I think you're gonna see a tremendous, tremendous surge.
