What the fuck are all these people going to do with all their toilet paper??? I honestly don't understand why toilet paper would be a thing that people hoard. You're gonna run out of food to eat and shit to wipe before you ever get through all of it. I'm appalled at the stupidity. This virus has really brought out the dumb in people.

Seems it was a butchery today. I guess the WHO waited until the stock markets already plunged before they spoke out the bad word. Although everybody already knew it's a pandemic, they didn't call it so before. Seems someone didn't want to be responsible for this carnage.

The S&P 500 plummeted immediately after the opening bell, triggering an automatic stop to trading for 15 minutes that serves as a cooling-off period. The index was down 7.5% at 12:28 p.m. It would need to drop 13% to trigger a second trading halt.
The index, which professional investors watch closely as a gauge for the health of the markets, fell into a bear market, or a drop of 20% from its peak, putting it on track to end the longest bull market in Wall Street history.
Dow plummets 2,100 points following trading halt as investors express disappointment in Trump's coronavirus response

US stocks plunged on Thursday after President Trump's Wednesday coronavirus comments failed to calm investors' nerves.
Trump's 30-day European travel ban added to trepidation as airline stocks tumbled.
The S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq are in bear-market territory, down more than 20% from recent highs. The Dow Jones industrial average fell further into bear territory after closing below the threshold on Wednesday.
Futures on all three major US indexes hit "limit down" early Thursday, slipping 5% before trading was halted.

US stocks plunged deeper into the red on Thursday after President Donald Trump's address to the nation on Wednesday night failed to calm investors' concerns about the economic fallout from the coronavirus outbreak.
Selling was so pronounced in the opening minutes that a marketwide circuit breaker was enacted, halting trading for 15 minutes.
All three major US indexes fell more than 8% in midday trading. The S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq opened more than 20% below their recent highs, putting them in bear-market territory. The Dow Jones industrial average, which closed in a bear market on Wednesday, extended losses.

I was sick with the flu the other day and let me tell you, for one guy in a house alone sick with the shits for a day I used up quite a bit of TP. Now compound that by a family of 4 sick for a week or more and that's a lot of TP.
Honestly what worries me the most about this whole thing is not the virus itself but mandatory quarantine for unspecified amount of time and supply chain disruption if large amounts of employees are out of work or companies shut down.
In the Northeast for example most of the food to grocery stores is supplied by one national chain, if that chain goes down or slows down your grocery store will not be stocked.

NFL....
Multiple NFL teams suspended their pro day travel Thursday due to the growing concerns surrounding the new coronavirus known as COVID-19, but the new league year is still set to begin as scheduled this coming Wednesday.
BANK RUNS???
lGobal banks are already scrambling to split their workforces to reduce the risk that large numbers of employees fall ill, and testing backup sites to ensure they can continue doing business even if they can no longer access Wall Street or locations in central London.
JPMorgan Chase (JPM) has started dividing its sales and trading teams between separate offices. It told employees in an email that this is a "precautionary measure" to make sure the bank can continue to run smoothly. The firm runs alternate sites in Brooklyn and New Jersey, and in Basingstoke, about 50 miles southwest of London.

Senators vented their frustration to senior administration officials during a closed-door briefing Thursday morning over what lawmakers complain is a persistent shortage of coronavirus testing kits across the country and unreliable data on how fast the virus is spreading in the United States.
After Vice President Pence told GOP lawmakers at a private lunch meeting earlier in the week that millions of test kits would be made available at the end of the week, senators on Thursday complained to senior officials that the shortage of testing kits remains a major problem.
"There's frustrations with the testing," said Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), the chairwoman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, as she left the meeting.
She said lawmakers also expressed frustration over the "accuracy" of the data on "people infected" around the country.

ositive for the virus that has infected more than 100,000 people worldwide.
And the National Institute of Health's Anthony Fauci, one of the world's foremost experts on infectious disease, told a congressional committee the testing system is not geared to the country's needs, and "that is a failing."
If it was possible to ignore the coronavirus before, that's not the case anymore.

What's the YTD% drop for the DOW?
That 28% is the first figure I have recognised. I feel sure it will bounce back within the year.
what shares would one buy to take advantage of lower pension expenditure going forward?

Some talked about a peak from mai until august. Wonder how the herb market will look like this autumn. As the majority of it is import.
Still time to make more seeds for June month.
