Just know that buying into long markets looks ugly and messy. Your balances will go down naturally but the eventual recovery on these key names with plenty of $$$ will be glorious.

After 2008 my balance was down 28% but then up 31% just on the initial recovery.

Realize that the "war zone" that is north Italy -- they have a large elderly population. A very high percentage of the deaths there are elderly. This is not a plague of a virus. 99.5% or more have survived it and beaten it. This is a pneumonia like flu. Many that got it in China never went to a hospital or even reported it (thus skewing the WHO's numbers into making it look like a 3% death rate). It is far from that. I can pull up a recent prelim study or 2 to back that up if you like.

As Irish has said, this started in a poor part of China, where many were already immuno compromised or unwell from air pollution and other environmental factors.

You're right on surfaces, from what I've read, but keep in mind it does not like heat or humidity. I guess just don't order anything on Prime from AMZN
if you smoke, it has a big impact on you. TIME TO QUIT. Aggiedoc posted about it on the M&W board. I will try to link his facebook page.

Why is the coronavirus so much different than the swine flu? The swine flu infected 60 million people and 12,000 died in the U.S.

We didn't have a vaccine for the swine flu then and the whole world didn't freak out to this extent.
As of yesterday I would have said this is hyperbole and media sensationalism. Given the event cancellations and travel restrictions it's a little harder to make the case after today.

This evening I spoke with my roommate from A&M who has five or six medical degrees - he's dead set "this is the big one."
Interesting. My friend with several medical degrees thinks it's not nearly that bad.

Okay but when was the least time either of these friends stayed at a holiday inn Express?

Thanks for the response.

He wasn't saying he knew, it was his opinion. This guy's name is Jeffrey Saut He has been managing money for 48 years. He is a pretty good follow due to his decent track record..

My curiosity is on the internal energy model. I have never heard of this and was curious if other traders follow something like that.

His partner is a technical trader and didn't mention anything other than he is now clueless as to what will happen next.

Mine was up 40%. I didn't even blink at the 2008 recession because I was in my 30s. I went all in during that time.

This one has me spooked because I'm older, but I haven't pulled anything yet. I'm about to lose my mind over it though.

Actually have $12k on the line going in this morning assuming everything is running and then I'll watch it drop immediately. Yuck.

So many majors on sale. KO is on sale, AAPL is about to be on sale, AMZN is almost on sale, BA is close to being on sale. It's just nuts.

So, I had a order scheduled to execute on the open. That didn't happen. I assume it sits open until trading resumes and then it will automatically execute?

Unchartered waters here for me.

Oh heck no! My Puts only protect from larger losses. It will be painful but this is getting to the time when you're either investing or in the wrong game.

If you had open orders you may cancel them, adjust them or leave them. They will execute if not touched and price hit.

Preach on sir!

The question to me, as someone with about $75,000 in cash in retirement IRA and savings, is when to back up the truck? I'm not an options/day trader guy, so mostly looking to buy solid companies with dividends for the IRA.

Don't get me wrong, lots of great "deals" here on certain stocks we have discussed. My gut tells me it drops even further. Great time to start buying and averaging over the coming days?

AAPL in 250's and AMZN in low 1700's, is definitely a sale...might see a tad lower, but I bet not much

I could not get an order to go through (Before the halt) and I was hitting the ask for 5 minutes straight... On TDA.

Maybe my orders are too small lmao

I'd back up at least half the truck now at these prices and not worry one bit.

Though I really do have a doctor friend saying it's not that bad, you hit the nail of my post on the head.

Yeah I think I'll put the rest of my cash in some stocks today and then just not look at the accounts for a bit...haven't had much time to trade options lately anyways so will just sit on the sideline until we get back to more technical trading and less hysteria based trading
