Is this going to hold into the weekend?

Wow this seems like extreme territory.

Doubtful. Over 48hrs of news cycle about everything being shutdown for a week or two.

The US is essentially going into a voluntary quarantine next week.

Cramer interviewing Mnuchin on CNBC in 5 min.

SLV under $15 is an awesome buy to hold and/or trade.

We banned short selling in 2009 for a bit, I suspect it may happen again.

Futures trading is insanity this week, the nights have been wild. So many halts

Close to getting a corona relief bill done. Working closely with Pelosi. President and VP spoke with him over 10 times yesterday for direction. We're in the 2nd inning of their planned relief. Tried to reassure everyone it'll be ok.

He said stimulus package a lot. Ha.

Cramer is now the go-to for moentary policy in the US? They also calling Judge Judy 10x/day for legal advice?

Jebus, pass the puts.

you misread the comment

Yes, it was poorly written. Mnuchin was calling Trump and Pence for direction.

Nah, didn't read it at all, as I didn't unravel the +1. Funny. I feel better now.

ETA: The sad part is it wouldn't deeply surprise me if they were asking Cramer for advice.

He said markets are staying open, and that is a ridiculous rumor otherwise. They want to keep them open to show confidence and allow people to buy for longer term. He said med pros haven't given dates, but he thinks this will last couple months and that there will be major rebound towards end of year.

He said he is in 2nd inning of getting all the things done they want with stimulus etc.

Priority is small biz and health of boots on ground. Support/bailout of airlines is being looked at and cruises/hotels after that. But focus on protecting hard working Americans. Exemptions for companies based on exposure and impact.

Are we doing enough? Muchin says yes, 24/7 task force focus and things are moving fast to protect economy.

Liquidity liquidity liquidity...as Cramer pumps a buy opportunity. Muchin says we will do whatev for liquidity.

They'd have a stimulus deal done if people weren't trying to ram in federally funded abortions and other totally unrelated crap.

I believe this is true for every law ever. I'm a tech guy and I saw a recent totally unrelated law being held up bc they're trying to make encryption illegal. Which would of course literally destroy our economy without hyperbole, but the old brigade on the hill has no idea how to hook up a printer.

Green today. Red Monday.

Understanding that nobody knows sheet about what's really gonna happen, we're bright green on the open today.

Anyone want to speculate whether we end up green or red at the end of today?

---

Really green unless there is bad news like president testing positive or something like that.

Now isn't a time like every other time. Thankfully the free market is circumventing DC and taking this matter seriously. I saw ATT is removing some data caps to help people work remotely and Cuban is looking for ways to take care of hourly NBA event workers.

100% agree. Markets respond immediately. Laws respond eventually.

We closing in the green today ?

Last two fridays saw massive gains last hour. I would expect today would be no different, right?

I think we get scary info today that drives us red

How did the Mondays open? I haven't held over the weekend in forever because I feel like it's always a bloody monday with weekend news.

It's not looking like it. Everything in free fall this morning after gapping up.

Gotta be risk to the upside that the government gets something done today or over the weekend, right?
