Savings down the plughole

Minny, yes, and everyone's pensions and lots of jobs = I'm sure you're very happy. Just one of the drawbacks of having savings. Something i doubt you have to worry about. My gilts are immune though, and the share exposure will come back up through the plughole at some stage.

Minny, you're going to be exposed to the virus whether you like it or not, or whether you trace away for years.

If people have it, have no symptoms, spread it then how can they be traced? If someone gets it, they ask if they've been near anyone with symptoms, not if they've been near people without any symptoms. I'm repeating experts btw, not guessing.

There are several confirmed cases in the uk, probably hundreds infected but with no symptoms. While i'm ok jack, being fit and healthy, you and your 45 stone and severe mental disabilities may not be ok when you get it.

Emotionally, I feel for those weakest in society who are going to face a severe reaction, but factually, we have to accept that it's now extremely unlikely we're all not going to be exposed to it. Half of us will shake it off without us knowing, half of what's left will get mild symptoms, half of that annoying sympoms, half of that severe symptoms, and about 0.5% of weak bodies won't be able to shake it off and will die, probably 3 or 4 months earlier than they otherwise would have done. That's my understanding from experts - i like you and most here, know very little for myself. If I were very weak and vulnerable, I'd probably try to get somewhere very isolated for a long holiday, but obviously travel is a risk.

A lot depends on whether you think we are going in to recession here.

I missed off one other effect. I spoke about lloyds specifically which would depress it (and also other banking stocks). There is a much wider use of tracker ETF's such at the ftse short e.g. suk2 or banking sector tracker.

Short term this will take all stocks down, but medium, direct investors in lloyds may see better value. It's like watching ripples on the surface of a pond (but less even). They just take a while to move around, bounce and interact.

I’d wait a few months before giving those details again. In 3months time there maybe oversupply in the housing market to the sum of millions"

That all the rich Chinese, Russians, and Arabs will snap up!!!!

House prices in the UK went up 2.8 percent year-on-year in February of 2020, well below a 4.1 percent jump in January and market expectations of 4 percent, Halifax data showed this morning.

Morning you vulgar drunkard.

How's the hangover?

[minerve 2] 06/3/2020 10:15

So according to the government 95% of cases within a 9 week period. Doesn't seem to correlate with the stock market response now does it. Who is right I wonder.

[minerve 2] 06/3/2020 10:12

OK, now isn't it time we handed the vaccine patent over to Donald? The Brexiters seem desperate to give him everything else.

"The Worst Is Yet To Come": Nomura Now Sees As Many As 1.5 Million Covid Cases By June


In the bank's new base case, it revises down further its Q1 2020 GDP growth forecast for China to 0% y-o-y, and for the world to 0.9%. While Nomura still envisages a V-shaped global recovery in Q2 in its new base case, it now has a “U” in its new "bad scenario" and a downright depressionary “L” (non) recovery in the new severe scenario.

Pierre

Tracing is not useless BECAUSE the majority of cases are still being imported. Also, if you trace new clusters where import contacts haven't been found you can seek for correlated incidents and the correlation addressed. For example, in the US local transmission has been found to be linked to a care home.

Even in China where local transmission has been the highest of any country they are still using contact tracing.

The government have left you for dead and you are still supporting their methods. Dear me, when will you wake up.

Quite frankly I'm fkin staggered half of the EU hasn't packed up their camping gear jumped on a plane and erected their tents inside our hospital grounds to be assured of treatment in the event of a C19 epidemic. Only a matter of time before our hospitals look like GLASTONBURY.
