Italian style lock down, with trains still running between Milan and Rome seems not to be working as today their number of deaths from coronavirus has increased by 97.

Up just a little bit.....thanks for the link

Sounds like next stage of large scale self isolation if any symptoms is being warned of by the PM and CMO in a couple of weeks time maybe.

Looking forward it may prove that the transatlantic routes fall victim to the virus coupled with perception of fear.

If this proves the case, weakness against IAG below 394p risks proving messy, signalling the risk of further reversal to 334p. If broken, secondary calculates down at 222p.Despite being a truly shambolic reversal suggestion - a 50% reduction on current - this risks not being the end of the story as "bottom" works out at somewhere between 100p and 138p ultimately.

Yip, if 394 goes then 222 next support and we haven't even reached peak virus

Good luck all.

Let's see in 3 weeks

[dround87] 09/3/2020 15:15

Yeah! For all the talk of hiding figures it's funny who you really need to pay attention to. I don't really buy into the idea that China was hiding figures anyway. I think it suited them better to expose it and create a panic. Of course many people won't have come forward but that's hardly the fault of the Chinese government. I for one certainly wouldn't go marching into a GP if I thought it meant 2 weeks in quarantine. This is why I think it's probably less lethal than we're giving it credit for. Loads of folk will have just dealt with this themselves.

Held very well today.

[nw99] 09/3/2020 15:04

Key is the USA they have not been testing but will over the next 3 weeks that will scare people

Italy has the highest number of 65s in Europe and the second highest in the world as a percentage of population.

In Italy the elderly take a far higher and active part in life then any other country in Europe.

[smithys2019] 09/3/2020 14:49

Cautious optimism. There will be some days worse than expected, some better, but it does SEEM to be stabilised around 40-50 extra a day. A week should give us a clue as to whether it is going exponential.

Just an observation, but it appears those European nations practicing double peck welcome/greetings seem to have been hardest hit. Pure speculation and observation, but odd that Italy and France have been particularly hard hit. The French, with their experiences in Western Africa and the Sahet will I guess get on top of this pretty quickly.

My experience with them there was no double peck greeting and “fist bump” replacing hand shakes in country.

I’m putting it down to all of those hands on Pizza dough.

Also, a lot of older people retire to northern Italy, particularly the areas hit, perhaps explaining the pretty bad Mort rate.

[dround87] 09/3/2020 14:25

At these levels you can't really say that. I certainly expected to be further along though. Probably a good thing people are so paranoid.

[watfordhornet] 09/3/2020 14:17

That is a smaller increase that over weekend so seems that we are containing it better than most countries. Sounds bad but was pleasantly surprised increase was relatively small

[carter633] 09/3/2020 14:15

We've just jumped to 319 too. It'll be around 1000 by mid next week surely? As incubation periods end for more and more people

[loganair] 09/3/2020 14:01

I've just noticed Spain has had a 50% increase in the number of coronavirus cases over the last 18 hours with the number of deaths doubling.

[carter633] 09/3/2020 13:53

Singapore Airlines hedged fuel at $76 a barrel. It'll be hurting them a lot with the oil drop

[smithys2019] 09/3/2020 13:53

🚁 💰 time.

The big orange one will be bricking it over his chances of Re-election.

Bloomberg: Wall Street hit a circuit breaker. 15min break. 13% drop causes the next circuit breaker. If it drops below 20% the market is shut for the day

[carter633] 09/3/2020 13:42

Now under 400. I'm waiting for below 350 to jump in and double my shares total and massively cut my average

[carter633] 09/3/2020 13:24

Bloomberg estimating Oil will drop to below $25 per barrel

[knowing] 09/3/2020 13:22

BA have just cut 18% of their European flights
