TH3 Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 1 hour ago, TPS said: Well, I think I called 20K up thread somewhere, in response to someone saying 21K. My view: The market will respond weakly to anything directed at economic stimulus outside of who/what is being impacted by the virus. A payroll tax cut is fine down the line, but not now. Everything they do now must be directed at mitigating the impact from the virus. The Government must cover all related costs--the two weeks of paid time-off; 0% loans to the major industries affected--airlines, travel and tourism in general, etc.; stop-gap the medical costs--covering the costs of testing and care, and making sure the states have all the funds they need. It's impossible to estimate the economic costs of this thing which means complete uncertainty as to forecasting prices, which is why the most important thing is to address restraining the virus. Once the government comes out with proposals that do this, then it will at least provide a little clarity on the economic costs going forward. Once we get to the point where investors believe the government is actually proposing and doing things that will "flatten out the curve" of its growth (the virus), then we should at least see a temporary bottom. So far, they haven't proposed anything like this, so I expect we will bust through my 20K guess.... I was fortunate to put myself in a fairly liquid position (30% equities) coming out of 2019 because I was expecting a typical correction. I will most likely put a chunk back in today (I added some after the February drop putting me at 40%), even though I don't think we've hit bottom as described above, I will move to a 50% position today. I said 21k I have not put anything in equities since DT got elected.....I figured he would do nothing of substance, drive up the debt and ultimately the market would crash....for Bush...it was massive over leverage in the housing market...for DT - its the CV.... 2 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: Gloating.

Heyoooooo I wish I could say I was surprised to see a leftist cheering on bad news. I wish I could. But I can't. Is it any wonder that when the dust is cleared and the left is barking in full throat, the very best they have to offer this country are two very old, very angry, very rich, very white men? Heyoooo. 3

Nobody criticized the decision to restrict travel from China. Stop feeding into the right wing propaganda. OK. What part was debunked? Which part is misinformation? The part about Trump wanting to restrict travel to China/Iran back in January? This was all over the news at the time. Just Google Trump's travel ban to China, and you will find a ridiculous number of non-right wing news stories. He made the proposal on January 31, and predictably the Democrats didn't like it. Further more, I never said anything about Chuck Schumer. And I have no knowledge about a fake tweet spreading around. I'm talking about the very words of both JOE BIDEN and BERNIE SANDERS (the two Democrats running for the presidential nomination). They called Trump's travel restrictions "racist" and "xenophobic." 1

You see, to the left, everything is racist and xenophobic. Everything. People not eating at Chinese restaurants are racist and xenophobic. People who call the virus the Wuhan virus are racist and xenophobic. Trump is racist and xenophobic, and that's just because he's not longer a Democrat. In fact, I'm racist and xenophobic for bringing this up, but I've always been racist because I've never been a Democrat. In fact, you're racist and xenophobic for criticizing Schumer. You may even be an anti-Semite for that one, but I lose track sometimes. Anyone know if criticizing Shumer makes you anti-Semite?
