Total active cases have been and continue to fall. Maybe the market is now realizing it was all overblown to begin with. As always, the news made it seem a whole lot worse than it really was.

Whatever happened to DocFenton and his projections? Did he finally humble himself and just give up?

It’s so hard to find reliable info coming out of China. They appear to be firing the factories back up, albeit at reduced capacity. If they haven’t completely irradiated the virus (which they haven’t) then they are just putting the population back at risk. Honestly, it appears to be the approach China and other countries will take. Beef up the healthcare system and let the virus do it’s thing. I don’t think it’s somethjng that can be contained at this point.

Total world cases may be going down, but that’s very misleading. China had the 99% of those cases and they have either effectively quarantined the population or aren’t reporting fully. Maybe both. The stats to watch is the spread outside of China. South Korea seems to be a good indicator to follow. They’ve been extremely proactive in testing the population and providing info on who and where people are infected. SK is currently seeing a sustained rapid rise in cases.

Italy and South Korea seem to be good countries to follow. Anything out of China is suspect as shite

he seemed like a smart guy, but unless he changed his strategy he lost a ton of money last year.

Want? No

I’m just reading articles and posting on info that I’ve found. Vast majority of my opinions are based on what experts are saying about research and other studies.

Just because you don’t want it to happen, doesn’t mean that it won’t happen. Well it kinda already is. Will be interesting to see how the market reacts as more cases pop up in the Euro and US, and people stop consuming at the normal rate.

You’ve denied everything. China has clearly been fudging the results

He was just always on defensive side, expecting things to take a turn for the worse. He seemed like a pretty sharp character and I enjoyed reading his post.

I believe he just missed the entry back into the markets in ‘09 and tried to create a reason to keep holding and wait for that bottom again.

Athletix,

I listened to your suggestions last week and Friday I moved to 100% bonds, should I get back in? I feel as though it may have been a bad idea. I trust your guidance.

Thanks

When the market drops again they will be back.

I purchased last week and this morning. Glad I didn't panic and hit sell during any of it.

Still here. Still well into the green. Still defending my position with facts. I’m not afraid to be wrong, but if this thing turns around like it did all last week... You gonna still be here with gotcha posts?
