Red alert: US companies are asking for government bailouts.

The US hotel and travel industry are asking for bailouts!

Can you imagine that this virus outbreak is just in its inception in the US and so many US companies are asking for government bailouts?

What will happen to the US when the infections hit 50m people and cause 1.7m deaths?

Will the stock markets recover from now or there are further downsides to come? You decide for yourself.

Just look at the GDP growth forecast for the US in Q2.

Red alert: US medical workers are getting infected with covid-19.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/one-mask-day-doctors-virus-225407143.html

This is really bad news for the US.

When more medical workers are getting infected, the US will collapse because there won't be enough medical workers to take care of the infected patients.

Don't be surprised that the US will overtake China and become the sick man of the world.


Just take a look at the projection for the US below.

The Japanese stock markets have more room to fall. Why?

The Japanese stock markets have not factored in the cancellation of the 2020 Olympics.

2020 Olympics won't be postponed to the end of the year in Japan because the weather won't be suitable to hold it anymore.  This event also cannot be postponed to next year (2021) because this will affect the next Olympics which is to be held in 2024.  Therefore, the event is likely to be cancelled since covid-19 outbreak cannot be contained worldwide.  Japan will lose billions from this cancellation since $12 billions have been invested to prepare the sports facilities and infrastructures.

After the 2020 Olympics is cancelled, the Japanese government will start to report the true covid-19 statistics which won't be good.

The 2 achilles' heels of the US economy.

Any rebound in the US stock markets is just temporary because the short-sellers are squaring their positions.

The US stock markets have not priced in the full impacts of the covid-19 outbreak yet.  S&P has projected 50m infections in the US.  We can infer the death toll at 1.7m since the average mortality rate is 3.4%.

http://sg-stock.blogspot.com/2020/03/50m-americans-could-be-infected-by.html

I've seen other projections and the highest was 170m infections.  Therefore, S&P's projection is considered optimistic since the US flu has infected more than 30m people insofar.

This covid-19 outbreak will hit the 2 Achilles' heels of the US economy which are the corporate debts (include high yield bonds - junk bonds) and the mortgage debts (property).  This is the rationale behind the US FED's action to inject money into the financial market to buy the US treasurys and mortgage-backed securities.

The S&P has started to downgrade the corporate's credit rating now.

https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/news-insights/latest-news-headlines/s-p-cuts-boeing-to-bbb-keeps-ratings-on-negative-watch-57609123

The S&P has also warned about the shale oil&gas companies and Australia banks ratings.

When the corporate and mortgage debts blow up, the world will face a great recession and this time will be much serious than the past recessions.  This is because people will be losing monies and also their lives.

50m Americans could be infected by covid-19.

https://www.asiainsurancereview.com/News/View-NewsLetter-Article/id/60687/Type/eDaily/COVID-19-Around-50m-Americans-could-be-infected-and-lead-to-90bn-medical-insurance-claims

S&P is projecting that 50m Americans will be infected by covid-19.  This means there will be 1.7m deaths in the US at a 3.4% mortality rate.

The US still has a long way to go from the current statistics.  The US cases are rising rapidly now.


omg! The UK has given up its fight against covid-19 outbreak.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-03-13/u-k-says-virus-needs-to-infect-60-of-britons-to-save-lives

The UK has given up!

This is really an insane proposition.

The UK will be the virus outbreak epicentre soon because it is not trying to contain and mitigate the outbreak.  It will let its people mingle around to achieve the herd immunity objective.

We must ban UK now!

The US markets just had a dead-cat bounce. Why? - Part 2

We are right again!

http://sg-stock.blogspot.com/2020/03/the-us-markets-just-had-dead-cat-bounce.html

We told you that it was a dead-cat bounce last Friday.  There is no way for the stock markets to recover when the infection rate and death toll are increasing.

The US cases are increasing rapidly now.
