    My point is that you seem to have no issue at all reporting " with enthusiasm I might add "when things are going in the wrong direction .... But quiet as a church mouse when it was meteorically rising in the other direction.

    Why exactly is that , if you don't mind sharing?

    And no, I'm an old timer according to some so I'm impacted as well.....I just have the stomach for it....some don't.
    Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

      What you see as enthusiasm I see as fear. I'm thinking I'm not alone in that fear especially amongst the older folks. Who do we place blame for this catastrophe? I think it's China but that makes me a racist. Is it just a coincidence most of our ingredients for life saving drugs come from China, that includes antibiotics. With that, I'm outta here. I hope everyone stays safe and well and this epidemic ends soon. God bless all.

        Stick around STONGERTHANDIRT. We all may not agree on everything but you seem to make sense and you're respectful. Those two virtues are very much in short supply around here much of the time.

        Speaking the truth regarding where this virus came from does NOT indicate that you're a racist. That statement is nothing more than the undiluted truth. I just watched the President's daily briefing and press conference and he used the same phrasing as you did regarding where this virus came from. A no doubt well meaning and sensitive young female reporter asked the President why he persists in calling the COVID-19 virus the China virus and his reply was firm and without hesitation. He said he calls it the "China" virus because that is where it originated and where it came from, simple as that. The young reporter had no reply or follow up.

        As most of you know I'm not a huge fan of our President's personality. In fact, as I've said before, I wouldn't really want to be in the same room with him. But, he is at least brave enough to call something exactly what it is and I'll take that over partisan political mamby-pamby bullsh!t all day every day.

            Why would anyone invest their savings wholely into the stock market?That's crazy!

            Fortunately, a wise man, my dad, told me always to invest in real estate. I have and its paid off big time!

            Now, I am in a huge real estate market, but ive invested outside my area and done real well! You cant beat brick and mortar!

                  Maybe in your market, but not in mine!

                  When you can buy a house for less than $5,000, put another $5,000 in it, rent it for $900/month and its paid for in a little over a year! Plus, its value increases 10-14% a year! Very hard to beat!

                  I just recently started doing this, but Ive been doing work for a guy that has approx. 250 of these! Yes, he's toting it to the bank!

                        I can beat that deal, too. All day long! And I don't have the myriad of headaches that comes with rental property. NO THANKS. Been there, don't wanna' go back

                          Get outa here......no way that's happening or SS or mccarter would be reporting on it.

                          Unless they only want to talk about it when it goes down.....which is highly plausible.

                            Oil bagan downtrend feb 21. Trump rally was only a month ago on same feb 21 in vegas.
                            Did he know what was coming?

                            President Trump held a campaign rally in Las Vegas. During the rally, he addressed reports that Russia is meddling to help his re-reelection campaign saying, "they're trying to start a rumor, it's disinformation…Wouldn't he rather have, let's say, Bernie, who honeymooned in Moscow."

                              I think it's a dead cat bounce in response to the stimulus package. I don't think we will see the bottom until mid-summer or whenever the stay-at-home orders relax. There are still factories around here closing because of cases of covid-19 among the workers.
