Dow just hit 22,000. Keep it going. I can't imagine how (frank)ing pissed i would be being a Client's of Looserville with the disastrous advice he has been giving. Hopefully for his sake Canada is prepping their own Stimulus. Difference is that 3rd world plan will be worth thousands, not trillions.

Does it anger you that I turned a 20% profit during one of the worst market downturns in history ?

Would have been 40% if I didn’t get too greedy.

I can't take Cuomo at his word that he's serious about containment until NYC bans in and out travel. Or should we just wait until the FL numbers explode because of those that traveled there.

This whole Florida issue is perplexing to me.
The Idiots from up North who can't think past their eyelids decided in a pandemic and against all State and US govt recommendations, just to gather in a few spots and party really close to each other and augment that with lots of sexual and other physical human contact ....
but Florida is the idiot. Lunacy.

Had Florida shut down the beaches (probably the safest of the unsafe place to congregate), I do wonder how many northern idiots would have gone to their hotel rooms (where they probably had 4 to a 2 bed room) and am equally sure they would have cleaned religiously and maintained a safe(?) 6 feet apart.
But Florida is the idiot.

YOU PEOPLE!

Solid post.

IF I did my math right (used 0.0004 as the multiplier) using your figure, then that is equivalent to the following for the various income levels::
$40,000 = $16
$65,000 = $26
$100,000 = $40

Or, like someone earning $250,000 who donates a 33 roll package of TP from Amazon and issues a press release


I thought I heard Jack donated $25,000 ... 25-hundreths of 1%
If true, 6x more generous.

Jobless claims is 3.3 million.
- buffalofan19

that's a big number...

so...I went and gathered every state that has some kind of stay-at-home regulation in place and looked up all the restaurant workers in each of those states via:

https://restaurant.org/research/state

I counted 19 states right now with a grand total of just under 7 million restaurant employees...don't know exactly how many have been furloughed by my guess would be at least 80%...

saw somewhere on forbes this morning that the unemployment number could hit 5-6 million at the end of march...

the question I have is this, the feds asked the states not to publish unemployment numbers...why?

by state breakdown of restaurant employees in states with stay-at-home type regulations in place:

CA 1830000
CO 286000
DE 46000
HI 99000
IL 589000
ID 73000
IN 311000
NJ 348000
NY 866000
OH 585000
LA 213000
MA 349000
MN 276000
OR 211000
NM 96000
VT 30000
WA 333000
WV 73000
WI 285000

Total 6899000
