Report: Wall Street believes economy to be relatively unscathed from Coronavirus Pandemic!!!

https://www.ccn.com/dow-futures-crawl-higher-as-investors-cling-to-main-street-cash-infusion/

Everything is wonderful, don't you know? 20%+ unemployment, 100,000+ DEAD? Who cares?!

Investors’ muted response to mounting evidence of economic destruction can be attributed to faith that one way or another, the U.S. economy will emerge from the coronavirus crisis relatively unscathed.

They have at least one story about Biden that reads like Breitbart.

CCN.com, also known as CCN Markets, was founded in the summer of 2013 in Norway by serial entrepreneur Jonas Borchgrevink as “CryptoCoinsNews.com”. Although bitcoin gained plenty of coverage in mainstream media, there were few crypto-focused online publications at the time. CryptoCoinsNews quickly became one of the largest and most trusted cryptocurrency news outlets, and the team behind it expanded rapidly.

In 2017, CCN.com received an offer to purchase CCN.com. We accepted the offer and moved our entire site from CryptoCoinsNews.com to CCN.com in the fall of 2017.

Who Owns CCN.Com?
By the end of 2018, CCN.com converted from the sole proprietorship PF Wetting (Odins gate 11A,0266 OSLO, Norway) run by Jonas Borchgrevink into a limited liability company with the name of “Hawkfish AS” and with a new business address, Drengsrudhagen 6, 1385 Asker, Norway. Hawkfish AS is 100% owned by IAKIP AS (Mellombølgen 68, 1157 Oslo, Norway) which is 100% owned by Jonas Borchgrevink, a Norwegian serial entrepreneur.

I too am hopeful jobs/business can fairly quickly rebound. That is - I am 'hopeful' - not really sure what they are seeing to make them believe this though. Maybe when Joe is elected...

is based on consumer confidence.

How confident are consumers right now?

WalMart looks like a demilitarized zone. Paper money is being avoided. Toilet Paper and hand sanitizer are worth more than oil.

... economy was opening back on that date.

When Trump couldn't get that date as a 100% open then he put things on the states as a scapegoat

Once "investors" find out Trump doesn't have a plan past killing all of us crap will hit the fan money wise=
