    I was doing Apple calls. I got out on the close. It was a weird close. I thought I had done well but then some other things happened. I did make bank but not Big Time. I am out.

    I just looked at the Dow futures -1,338.46-6.30% I would call that PAIN if you are long.

    2016 lows still 500+ pts away in ES. Already broken them in other indicies. Cap weighting has kept NQ/ES relatively bid.

    It will not be a treatment that swings the market, but actual data.

    The U.S. loses ~30,000 lives annually to influenza in the average year. (It's between 20k and 55K in recent years, with the mean closer to the bottom.) Over a five month flu season, that's nearly 200 souls lost per day. And nobody so much as gives a cough about it.

    Today, CoVID-19 recorded its 200th death in the U.S., since January 1.
    In that time, ~15,500 deaths from the flu.


    Again, it won't be a treatment that swings the market, but common sense.

    You are missing what the total would be if it ramps up + the fact that it is IN ADDITION to flu deaths

    Apologize. I must have had the wrong numbers.
    19,216.00USD -637.00-3.21%

    And this looks like low of the night.

    Were did I get the numbers?? In the MATRIX.
