Economic implications of a SARS/Coronavirus outbreak

Nah, Trumps doing great! America is showing the world how to do handle it! Even in Australia on the Trump thread you have people saying this.
And anyway, it's all China's fault and; as some in the USA media have stated; older people should be willing to risk losing their life to help the USA economy.
No one said trump is doing a good job. Just that certain policies of his are commonsense. Everywhere is reliant to on China. And it's not a good thing.

He has made the right moves in certain areas and completely bombed in others.
 
He was nearly the last to shut down trade with China. You obviously believe what he says.
We in Australia were earlier.

Obviously. Believe. What. He. Says. :rolleyes: Please.

US shut down travel from China on Feb 1st
Australia shut down travel from China on Feb 1st


Thank you.
 
In the meantime any number of existing drugs may be found effective in treating serious cases of COVID-19 such that it's death rate falls in line with that of the common flu.

Well this is what I use. Once (in another life) I used to prescribe this for relevant viral infections. Worked well. Have a read of the research and you may think it worth a try.

Dude you are the funniest person on this forum by far.

First was CZZ, the investment that went from $2 to $20 that you tried to convince everyone was a bad investment.

Then you tried to prove your superior methodology with AMZA, which certainly has wowed us all with its -75% total return since then.

I'll skip the details of the hilarious back and forth you are having in the gold thread and your comments about VIX being a "lagging indicator".

Now to top it off, best of all you're here telling us that you used to prescribe St Johns Wort for viral infections, something you can buy in the quack supplements aisle at Woolies, and your supporting document is an upside down scanned PDF :roflmao::laugh::roflmao::laugh::roflmao:

I'm not sure we as a species deserve this comedy gold.

This is a very unneeded personal attack: why?
Maybe you are stressed, lost money, have to WFH with the Wiggles in background but i am probably not the only one to think it is quite unwanted as a post.
As for CZZ, it could have been a great investment and paid for some members Tesla but it has been proven as a giant fraud buying cheap real Australian honey here and selling it back at a premium in China, while selling as Australian honey a mix containing chinese imports and rice sugar.
If this is the type of company to celebrate no thanks.

Before CoViD19, China sent us "CZZ honey"
Be nice, no-one knows who will be in ICU next or worst will need but miss one bed there

So you think it's fine for someone to recommend people take St Johns Wort as a treatment for COVID-19?

Not really my type of medicine but with placebo effect, who knows...
It is more the way you targeted him cf investments etc
Actually, i d prefer to take medical advice from a medic than a wall street guru..so my point...
Anyway, you can..i could too, be kinder and maybe target the advice not the person
 
Go have a read through the relevant threads.
Not going to go to a battle defending someone else; in this thread, you may disagree on the so called advice, I doubt we will be cured by a herbal tea myself, but fight the idea, not the person;
And if you can not stand the person, put it on ignore and you will feel better.
I did that with a couple of our more obnoxious..personal taste... persons
Last post from me about this, no one can force you..well I can not, so up to you to see what is both fair and relevant
Cheers
And while I might disagree with some of your ideas, opinion, etc (fair I think) i fully respect some of your knowledge overall and contributions in the market areas where I am but a novice

I'm in defence to Ducati, he/she did not say it was a cure, but rather it might prevent or reduce the risk of viral infections.

Nothing is guaranteed in life, but I was elderly and there was a small chance SW would reduce the chance of dying by 10%, I would consider it.
 
1. Dude you are the funniest person on this forum by far.

2. First was CZZ, the investment that went from $2 to $20 that you tried to convince everyone was a bad investment.

3. Then you tried to prove your superior methodology with AMZA, which certainly has wowed us all with its -75% total return since then.

4. I'll skip the details of the hilarious back and forth you are having in the gold thread and your comments about VIX being a "lagging indicator".

5. Now to top it off, best of all you're here telling us that you used to prescribe St Johns Wort for viral infections, something you can buy in the quack supplements aisle at Woolies, and your supporting document is an upside down scanned PDF :roflmao::laugh::roflmao::laugh::roflmao:

6. I'm not sure we as a species deserve this comedy gold.

1. I'm guessing that this is derogatory.

2. For those that want to read the thread it is available. But in brief, I stand by my analysis. If you wish to challenge it, simply go to the thread and post your criticisms/refutations, I'll play.

3. Well the time frame was for 5 yrs. We are at what time frame?

4. Again, re. gold, post your own criticisms/analysis, again, I'll play.

5. Did you read the research. Of course you did: what then do you disagree with? Your evidence? I'll post if needed, the relevant medical research papers, although they already summarised in the monograph. But, in any case, you are free to reject it ad hoc, I have no issues with that at all.

6. Again, I'm assuming derogatory. Which is fine, I have a thick skin.

Won't the money become like Monopoly notes if everyone's (say 1 million people are) getting more and more of it printed and handed out by the government?

This is where the rba might be in a really tough spot and think about putting up the rates in say 1-2 yrs time when things stabilise a bit. After all their job is to look after the economy and inflation not the housing market. But who knows thighs are moving fast and in unknown directions

That is one way, inflation or real value decrease of assets inc work in Australia thru AUD value plunge

People always think of inflation as I earn more but prices increase,
A crazy idea to start discussion as we are a minor player in the economy
In Australia, we could have a status quo where most of assets crashes matching a currency crash, you are paid the same, the house price, rates, etc stay the same but the aussie dollar goes down, only a few things like gold , oil increase but as we are in a global crash, oil in AUD just does not decrease as much as for a US customer and coal iron prices remain kind of constant in AUD, we just get all poorer, a socialist heaven...
Obviously, as we import a lot, we would need similar trend in imports to avoid inflation here but China being our key import/export partner, they might de-valuate the Yuan to catch disappearing market so not impossible...
Is this a possible scenario, inflation in disguise via a currency and overall asset devaluation
Anyway, I have no clue and I doubt many have a clue: this is quite unparalleled and we are still a few weeks away from real medical challenges here
