Nimatzo rank	Fri Feb 28 18:06:39 2020 Will this be a wake up call and China will ban those disgusting medieval markets?
Turtle Crawler rank	Fri Feb 28 18:38:50 2020 They've already abandoned the idea that it came from the market. Everyone assumes it came from their weapons lab now.
Rugian rank	Fri Feb 28 18:43:59 2020 The Chinese government is known for two things: being cartoonishly evil and having the ability to plan long-term. What are the odds that they intentionally released coronavirus to sabotage Trump's reelection efforts?
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 18:51:15 2020 Doing something to defeat Trump is not a long term plan. He would only get another four years. Now, showcasing the inherent superiority of an authoritarian and controlling unitary state is a different matter. That effect could spill-over for generations. So 100% chance, definitely.
Rugian rank	Fri Feb 28 18:52:48 2020 Jergul I'd hardly call the PRC's response to the pandemic a beacon of competence and effectiveness.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 18:56:53 2020 Let it play out. What will it look like when 1% of Chinas population have been infected and 20% of the US population? That's when a "miraculous" vaccine will emerge in China.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 18:58:30 2020 For all we know, China may already be deploying the vaccine secretely to control cluster outbreaks.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 19:05:34 2020 Its looking like investors are going to try to hold over the weekend. Monday will be a massacre. Tuesday will see a rebound unless news is overwhelmingly bad that day.
Rugian rank	Fri Feb 28 19:07:00 2020 Jergul, You seem to be under the impression that quarantines, telecommuting and tele schooling are unknown to the Western world. As for China. If anything, its authoritarian system has impeded dealing with the crisis. How smart was it to censor people who were trying to spread word of the virus in its early stages for example? The transparency that is present in Western democracies helps significantly with accountability. Something the PRC utterly lacks.
Dukhat rank	Fri Feb 28 19:15:44 2020 Like clockwork. Every cuckservative repeats the tom cotton cuckoo conspiracy theory. Fuck you guys are unbelievably stupid.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 19:24:31 2020 Ruggy There is a video of someone with the virus simply walking out of the consulting room, through the waiting room and back out on the street. Transparency? You have only tested 600 people. 10% of them are infected. I think you should pray on this before commenting further. Its what your corona tsar would like you to do.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 19:27:51 2020 Anyway, its not what we think, its what China thinks. I am sure they think the decadent west will fail to enactly sufficiently harsh measures. Besides, the deck is stacked. China can just stealth use its vaccine to control the outbreak. All it needed to do initially is to ensure it spread properely and deniably out of country. It only cost a few thousand dead. Totally worth it.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 19:32:00 2020 China incidentally has a national stockbuying team that has surged into action to take advantage of artificially low stock evaluations. You cannot have communism without state ownership after all.
The Children rank	Fri Feb 28 19:42:30 2020 the virus was probably created by usa. u fucks r pure evil. released it near our lab 2 place the blame on us. but it backfired cos china too strong and ur too weak. now its all over the world within weeks.
Rugian rank	Fri Feb 28 19:48:58 2020 jergul, You seem to be making the argument that authoritarianism implies professional competency. Even a Sovietphile like yourself can't truly believe that. In reality, the Chinese government is deeply incompetent at many levels. Do you need me to provide examples, or is that such a self-evident fact that we can agree to move on? As I am the only person in this thread that seems to actually have faith in Western liberal democracy, I am confident that we can respond effectively to the challenge. I am sorry that you feel otherwise.
jergul rank	Fri Feb 28 19:53:21 2020 I am making the argument that the Chinese Government thinks authoritarianism implies professional competence. We know that is untrue. We have already caught their dastardly plan of secretely releasing a manufactured virus to showcase their superiority. They have been foiled! What would the world do without this forum and conservative pundits, eh? I am sure we can respond effectively. Not as effectively as China, but I am sure you will devise a metric where we win somehow anyway.
CrownRoyal rank	Fri Feb 28 19:59:37 2020 "What are the odds that they intentionally released coronavirus to sabotage Trump's reelection efforts?" Dont be ridiculous, whats next, are you going to claim that russia sabotaged hillary's campaign? If Bernie says, at his next rally, "China, if you are listening, realease more viruses!", then we can speculate about sabotage, maybe.

Dukhat rank	Fri Feb 28 20:56:13 2020 Think about it. China infected itself first. That’s exactly what they’d do to hide the fact they created the disease. And then shutting down their own factories to drag the world into a recession. They truly are devious.

jergul rank	Mon Mar 02 07:15:32 2020 It looks like the #Trumpslump (what a lot of people are calling the stock market contraction) will get a slight reprieve on Monday. Go figure. But the center cannot hold. There will be more.
Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 02 08:18:10 2020 I wouldn't oversell what has so far only been a correction. There is still a chance the Coranovirus clears up by summer. Similar things happened with MERS and SARS. Containment and a lack of growth in cases would stabilize the economy.
jergul rank	Mon Mar 02 09:31:52 2020 I figure on a 20-25% reduction from highs. That is technically a contraction, but I would still consider it a correction given the fast speed of growth these last three years (easy come, easy go). Clear skies over China. There is going to be a supply side hit no matter what as inventories are emptied.

Daemon rank	Tue Mar 03 18:36:43 2020 http://mar...-coronavirus-2020-3-1028954803 [...] Nouriel Roubini, the economist nicknamed "Dr. Doom" for his pessimistic predictions, told Der Spiegel on Thursday that he expected stocks to plummet this year, President Donald Trump to lose the election, and the novel coronavirus to have a bigger effect on the global economy than many investors anticipate. "I expect global equities to tank by 30% to 40% this year," Roubini, a professor at New York University's Stern School of Business, told the German newspaper. [...] "The Democratic field is poor, but Trump is dead," Roubini added. [...]
Dukhat rank	Tue Mar 03 18:54:33 2020 Unprecedented .5% rate cut by Fed. Powell going all-in to try and save Trump. Barely any effect. Monetary policy is gassed from trying to delay the next recession so Trump gets re-elected. Fucking idiot kleptocrats. Fuck all the GOP and their moron supporters.
Dukhat rank	Tue Mar 03 19:25:05 2020 "The markets are completely delusional," Roubini told Der Spiegel. He said that if the coronavirus were to cause China's economy to shrink by 2% in the first quarter and grow by only 6% in each of the next three quarters, the slowdown "would essentially mean a recession for China and a shock to the world." *** As I said Jergul. You have to judge China on a curve.
Habebe rank	Tue Mar 03 20:48:49 2020 To add to Dukhats point, there is good evidence that China has been fudging numbers for years by over 1%.

Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 09 17:37:53 2020 The rest of the world is going down too Jergul. And the US is best situated to bounce back from this anyways out of all the major economies.
jergul rank	Mon Mar 09 17:41:31 2020 China is best situated to bounce back. It is on its way out of the first wave of the corona pandemic.
Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 09 17:45:57 2020 It got hurt really bad in the first wave though. It let it spread too long for a month. Then again ... so did the US. And the US has yet to do anything meaningful to slow the spread either. So we'll see.
jergul rank	Mon Mar 09 17:58:42 2020 Hurt more by its willingness to stop the epidemic than from the epidemic itself. 80 000 people off work and a few thousand dead would in itself not even register.
Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 09 18:05:31 2020 Are you sure about that Jergul? Even with their drastic containment measures, their hospitals were swamped for weeks and many people died on the streets. They already had a few thousand dead with those measures so I don't know why you believe that the casualties would've been exactly the same.
jergul rank	Mon Mar 09 18:20:42 2020 Not what I was saying. China obviously thought an uncontrolled epidemic would cause a lot more damage over the longer term than harsh measures to nip it in the bud. But nipping has a hefty price. Far more heavy a price than the actual number of sick and dead.
Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 09 20:37:26 2020 I’m pretty sure that’s not true. Scared people’ shop or work. Nor do sick people. Tens of thousands of infected swamped their medical system and infrastructure. We will be talking past each other until someone provides numbers anyways but I’m pretty sure, “letting everyone get infected” wasn’t a good idea. Just look at Iran and Italy.
jergul rank	Mon Mar 09 20:48:51 2020 I am not saying its a good idea. China probably made the right call. But the actual number of sick and dead is not enough to have a significant economic impact on its own. The measures to protect everyone else is what hurt China's economy.

tumbleweed rank	Wed Mar 11 22:34:36 2020 it'll probably go up tomorrow Trump is planning an oval office speech tonight... normally him speaking is bad, but presumably he'll be on teleprompter, so people will for some reason be encouraged by it that's the usual pattern... teleprompter Trump is encouraging, real Trump is panic-inducing
tumbleweed rank	Thu Mar 12 03:56:32 2020 I withdraw my guess... teleprompter Trump was serious... but he also banned travel from Europe...
Dukhat rank	Thu Mar 12 04:45:52 2020 Worthless policies. A tax cut to deal with a pandemic. Horrible.
tumbleweed rank	Thu Mar 12 05:59:29 2020 i'm glad he wasn't himself but i wonder if grim teleprompter Trump contrasted too much w/ real Trump's 'meh, the flu's worse' attitude & will cause more panic :p plus he was wrong about a lot of things for some reason... supposedly Jared (the devil) & Stephen Miller (klansman) were writers maybe try some qualified people in the future
Habebe rank	Thu Mar 12 06:38:45 2020 Well, we agree the devil is a Jew.
jergul rank	Thu Mar 12 07:14:52 2020 Is it timely to remind people that the US does not have a Democratic candidate who was running a surplus budget because the economy was doing fine? The Federal deficit was 1.15 trillion last year. So before a pending slowdown and all kinds of extra spending that is coming now. What do you think? A 2 trillion dollar deficit this year? Or is that number too low?
Dukhat rank	Thu Mar 12 07:33:43 2020 Democrats are not going to spend trillion in pointless tax cuts to save Trump from his own mistakes. We'll get paid sick leave and a bunch of ways to slow the pandemic and few if any tax cuts. And they'll want to save their fire for Biden to pass something when he becomes president anyways.
jergul rank	Thu Mar 12 08:19:49 2020 I had initially planned on buying stocks again when the correction passes 25%, but Trump is an idiot. My new target is DOW = 19750. I may end up not buying at all, but I really want to avoid overthinking stuff once I have made a decision. Don't worry though, I will not raise to be your new overlord. I am not playing around with much money (relatively speaking). Property is generally the best investment for normal people in Norway, so stock stuff is mostly just for fun.
jergul rank	Thu Mar 12 08:20:41 2020 rise*
Dukhat rank	Thu Mar 12 11:23:32 2020 I agree. We're in the range of 30-40% correction now instead of 20-30%. Trump will wait until it's too late to change our policies for the better and it will make things look very bad. We should be building makeshift hospitals and preparing medical airlift capacity right now. But we won't because Trump is a fucking idiot.

Rugian rank	Fri Mar 13 02:15:54 2020 Trump passes coronavirus test with flying colors By Michael Goodwin March 12, 2020 Big and bold, optimistic and compassionate. President Trump’s Oval Office address was exactly what America needed to hear. This is what it looks like when a president rises up to meet a crisis head-on. With fear and panic spreading across the land and threatening to take down the economy, Trump is facing the greatest test of his presidency. Although battle-hardened by brutal fights with Democrats, the biased media and foreign adversaries, he is presented with problems of a different magnitude with the coronavirus. It is a global menace that has declared war on America. Truth be told, sometimes in recent weeks, the president has appeared to be a reluctant commander-in-chief. Thankfully, as of Wednesday night, that reluctance is history, replaced by a president who left no doubt that he is all in on the battle against this deadly scourge. Now effectively a wartime president, Trump’s repeated assurances of victory were music to the ears of a rattled nation. His willingness to change course and step up his game reflects an understanding that this is a critical moment both for the country and his presidency. “History has proven time and time again, Americans always rise to the challenge and overcome adversity,” he said at one point, as if to underscore that he accepts the seriousness of the stakes at hand. The haters will never admit it, but Trump’s ability to meet the moment now is a reminder about why he was elected and how he has managed to guide the great American jobs machine to unprecedented heights. The only mystery is why supposedly intelligent people on the left refuse to acknowledge that millions of their fellow citizens are better off now than they were four years ago. That issue will be decided in November, but for now, the entire country should be united in the campaign against this silent enemy. To that end, the speech succeeded because it included specific actions that would help halt the spread of the coronavirus and pledges of aid to individuals and companies that are suffering. The travel ban from Europe for 30 days is certainly the strongest medicine, but the spread of the disease there, especially in Italy, is a warning about what could happen here. It would be irresponsible to take the chance, so shutting the doors is prudent. Remember, Trump was right in January to stop most Chinese nationals from entering the US, a fact that many of his critics still can’t accept. They are still wrong. The president also had to play comforter-in-chief, and he did that by outlining small-business loans and other measures, some of which were vague and need to be worked out in the coming days. And he didn’t skip the practical details, reminding people to wash their hands. That may be a first for an Oval Office speech. But the most important challenge was giving the American people confidence in his leadership and demonstrating his determination to lead the nation to the other side. His calls for unity and bipartisanship were part of that promise, but let’s face it, the odds of that happening are slim to none. There is so much bad blood in Washington and the leading Democrats, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, further poisoned the well by attacking Trump mercilessly on his initial handling of the coronavirus. Right out of the gate, they sounded as if they wanted to impeach him again instead of helping him find solutions. So they, too, now face a crisis of their leadership. Will they help fight this killer disease and try to calm the nation? Or will they continue to abdicate their governing responsibilities and put their partisan interests ahead of the nation’s well-being? Whatever they decide, America now knows it has a president committed to victory. That’s what matters most. http://nyp...st-with-flying-colors-goodwin/
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 02:27:50 2020 ^so a moron who thinks Trump even knows what the words were that he read
hood rank	Fri Mar 13 04:50:30 2020 Yeah, the stock market clearly got nothing on some noname NY post writer.
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 05:04:16 2020 Durian, In all fairness the test is far from over. I agreebthe leftnis jumping on this like everything else to try to unfairly discredit him but its way to early to say he passed or failed any covid19 test.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 05:10:06 2020 he definitely failed already, there is no excuse for the multiple times he contradicted his experts (including today... after the above moron thinks Trump turned a corner by reading a speech), and they are not innocent mistakes, it's his 100% consistent pattern of lying in his self-interest as he does in all matters
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 05:25:25 2020 Tw, My point being this is probably early in this situation.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 05:31:05 2020 well some of us realize Trump doesn't change and Pence said “I don’t think there was confusion" in regards to Trumps travel/trade ban announcement, so if you had confidence in him for some reason it should now be gone now (although he's infinitely better than Trump as he's an adult and without obvious mental illness)
hood rank	Fri Mar 13 05:47:44 2020 "Tw, My point being this is probably early in this situation." No. Early on was Feb 1st. The first death outside china was Feb 2nd (or at least hit the news Feb 2nd, so that's the latest). It was 40 days later that Trump finally acted. Taking 40 days to react is an indisputable failure.
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 05:51:11 2020 Meh, Trump could end poverty and Cure covid19 himself and you guys wpuld find something wrong with it. If you compare him to the rest of the first World on this issue he fares pretty well.
Dukhat rank	Fri Mar 13 06:19:10 2020 Trump has yet to act. Everything he suggested would do jack shit to contain community spread. That's why markets are falling so fast. Fucking idiot will only react when thousands of Americans get sick and by then it might be too late to really get a handle on things.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 06:19:33 2020 well, how great he's doing is his constant message (so presumably that of Fox too) ... he tweeted approval ratings of how his admin handling this today (yet again) I can't imagine any 1st world leader is struggling so hard to provide accurate info to the public the CDC and Fauci and others who have nothing to do with Trump may be doing fine... Trump has been total shit, as expected, and as will continue and if all the cancelations and precautions keep it under control, team Trump will probably again return to 'was media hoax just to tank economy' yadda yadda
Dukhat rank	Fri Mar 13 06:19:45 2020 "If you compare him to the rest of the first World on this issue he fares pretty well." Hot Rod reincarnated? Did he fake his death a 2nd time?
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 06:25:09 2020 " That's why markets are falling so fast" Then why are Europe's markets tanking as much or more?
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 06:31:19 2020 Dukhat, Who has handled this right?
hood rank	Fri Mar 13 06:38:08 2020 Vietnam did.
hood rank	Fri Mar 13 06:40:07 2020 Also, "If you compare him to the rest of the first World on this issue he fares pretty well." No. At best you can say he fares equally shitty. However, the US has 2 huge bodies of water on either side of us creating an incredible barrier for transmission. We should have been fine if this was handled even moderately well.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 06:41:37 2020 just off top of my head -Trump said spread not inevitable when experts at same briefing said they expected more cases -Trump at one point said 15 cases (not wanting to count cruise people) & noted x recovered so would soon be zero... it was not soon zero -Trump had multiple stupid comments in regards to a vaccine, such as repeatedly suggesting it would be out soon even though he stood w/ experts explaining it would likely be a year or more & why, yet it was in one ear out the other as he kept saying same thing (doubtful anyone outside the vaccine-making community would think a year is 'soon') -Trump claimed testing kits available to all who wanted... CDC & Pence contradicted -Trump's repeated effort to convince the public that the flu is worse... [see Italy] -today, Trump: "testing has been going very smooth"... multiple people in field having complaints; Fauci: w/ failure comments -Trumps teleprompter speech requiring multiple clarifications & corrections (w/ Trump not admitting to making any errors, obviously... on speech or any of above) then you have other things like Geraldo going on Hannity to urge Hannity to tell Trump to stop shaking hands as setting a bad example... (which is yet another person treating Trump like a child, Geraldo obviously saying that on air as knowing Trump was watching... & Geraldo added the required praise, calling Trump brave & doing a terrific job) the Geraldo bit if anyone cares: http://twitter.com/justinbaragona/status/1237560330298863616
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 06:41:55 2020 So Vietnam fared better than the US, Canada and the EU...ok.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 06:46:19 2020 one more: Trump not wanting the cruise ship passengers to leave ship (as it would raise our numbers...) but experts wanting them off (that's on video) yet Mike 'thanks to the President's strong leadership' Pence at the very next briefing claimed getting the passengers off the ship was a priority of Trump's fuck you, Pence
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 06:47:02 2020 So the whole world minus Vietnam dropped the ball.Its all Trumps fault, from the same people who hated the guy and looked for any reason to attack him prior to this. As of right now the US fucked up a bit with limited amount of tests, other than that we dont seem that bad ( we will find out more with more tests) we are equally as shotty as Europe, less shitty as Canada.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 06:53:33 2020 do you care that Trump keeps lying & downplaying? why is it remotely acceptable? i would think all the people who accepted his downplaying & the hoax narrative would be super pissed that he's now canceling travel & having staff dump tons of warnings/precautions out on his twitter but they won't be... as they have that brain parasite issue or whatever it is that makes Trump's constant ridiculously unacceptable behavior seem fine no mater what
tumbleweed rank	Fri Mar 13 06:59:32 2020 would low-energy Jeb! be so dishonest & have earned zero credibility from his -constant- bullshit? find another R candidate... literally anyone
Habebe rank	Fri Mar 13 07:03:07 2020 Meh, I get it he is trying to mitigate panic. To that end so far he has failed, but its early on we will see what happens in the next few weeks/months. We still seem better off than Canada and the EU.
hood rank	Fri Mar 13 07:04:08 2020 "the US fucked up a bit with limited amount of tests" No. The totality of the US fuckup concerning covid is clearly beyond your comprehension, hot rod. Just stop. You are the worst kind of fool.
hood rank	Fri Mar 13 07:07:09 2020 "We still seem better off than Canada and the EU." Also no. Jergulmath may be awful 99% of the time, but his counting of the number of undiagnosed cases is a good frame of reference here. It should be terrifying that we're likely under reporting the spread of the infection by about a factor of 10.
Dukhat rank	Fri Mar 13 07:08:46 2020 South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Germany, Thailand for starters. Worst: Italy, Iran. Are we closer to Italy or are we closer to Iran now? It's that bad.
