Until proven otherwise I am treating this like SARS/MERS/HIV etc. etc. etc. Tragic for those directly affected, but no real or lasting impact on the market.

Clearly, this is a political move by the Dems. They're hyping Corona as an attack on the U.S. Economy. They'll never oust T with record-high markets, a bustling U.S. economy, full employment, and peeps sitting with fat 401Ks. They have to bring the markets and economy down somehow. How about a virus that freezes trade worldwide? Sounds like a good idea to me. Let's run with it.
30yo healthy, fit individuals dying in less than a week of becoming symptomatic? Much, much worse than SARS. mkts gonna crash. I want it all.
%% BUT that is the risk when you have a slow news week/month. HYPE anything LOL. One lady said ''do NOT tell me worrying does no good; most of the stuff i worry about, NEVER happens'' ,
