The money you see going to the stocks is not average Joe's money. As you said average people have no savings. That money belongs to the whales and they are trying to scam you like pretending that the bear market is over and the worst is happened, which I think is not true.

There are only a few big guys trying to scam each other and you (small guys) that's what stocks is about now.

I see airlines companiy stocks going up while there are no planes in the sky. How can that be possible? It is because it is a scam that's how.

Have you got a stake in the dollar?

The other world reserve currencies are still doing pretty well after no longer being considered a world reserve currency. It may even flip between euro and dollar or another currency (yen or yuan)... I don't think it's delisting of being a world reserve currency would mean much.

I don't know how inflation is tracked there but both here and the US its targeted to hit 1.7% and that number is determined here by both the central bank and the office of national statistics in different ways.

“Forget about the macro worries. We can avoid a 1929-like situation. Go long on printing money,” said the Nobel prize-winning economist who is the Ford Foundation International Professor of Economics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Why would the market ever treat BTC like cash? We can already rule that out based on the 64% crash last month. In a liquidity crisis and recession, people obviously dump BTC for cash.

It's not treated like gold either. Gold only fell 15% and is now trading higher than it was in February and March. BTC dropped 64% and is still down 35% from its February highs.

The market obviously believes BTC is much, much riskier than either cash or gold. It is its own asset class, a very risky and experimental one.

Why are you so worried about his health?
Even if he is going to be tested positive he is going to get the best treatment not only in the US but probably all over the world. And despite that, he has a whole team on the background that they are working for eliminating the virus.

What's happening in the world today can be partially blamed on the deceptive nature of Totalitarian Communism.  The reluctance of the Chinese Communist Party to admit it's faults, their continued obfuscation of the severity of the plague, and their blatant lies about it's origin aren't helping humanity.  

So every time you listen to Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Adam Schiff, ask yourself what have they done to prevent this outlaw rogue regime from gaining power?  What's that you say?  Nothing?  Oh, it's quite the contrary, you say?  

They've done nothing but help the Chinese Communists steal our intellectual property, our manufacturing jobs, our pharmaceutical production.  They've enabled the Chinese to undercut American businesses who would provide technical and security support.  They've allowed the Chinese to undermine network security protocols for business, and many used by our military.

So, the difference between liberals and conservatives does matter.

It's the 12th. Many reports have said that the payments could start by the 16th - when taxes are normally due, or thereabouts? We don't have long to wait for reports to start coming in one way or the other.

Has there been an official update on the date that I have missed?

"Price Gouging During Disasters Is Actually a Good Thing"

Update:  I was asked how much I lost via PM.  Address given here publicly.  Not a single bit sent. 



This does not sound like any other Bas reply from the early parts of this thread. 

Don't count on these ever coming to fruition or the person in charge of this account doing the right thing.  If you get strung along believing you'll eventually get your item.... you deserve what you get.  This user is not trustworthy, PERIOD!

How sure are you that he is negative. Do you honestly believe what the media says about him. He is the president of a very powerful state and can do a lot of things like controlling what the media says about him. It is not like the media followed him to where he took the test, he could have just got a private test and is undergoing treatment secretly. He might also actually be negative and wanted the word to be known so that USA does not panick. Well I do not know everthing but what matters is that Trump is fighting the coronavirus.Let us all hope that it will die down soon because it is really affecting people worldwide.

testing negative does not mean immune. it means not had it YET

secondly. with the nonsense he says that then needs to be corrected by his team and by experts later
if he did take a few sick days off.. i feel there could be some more factual daily press conferences occuring.

but big emphasis.. testing negative means NOT YET

The idea of Digital Dollar might be bullish for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general,but what if the US government decided to ban Bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies,in order to boost the usage of the "digital dollar"?


Almost every American citizen uses online banking or has a Paypal account.Those can be considered  "digital wallets".Don't underestimate the tech savvy Americans.
I hate the term "tokenization".It makes me think about some altcoins(mostly "token" shitcoins) and ICOs(mostly scams).If there is further "tokenization" of the economy,it has to be heavily regulated by the government,in order to protect the people from scams,but the benefits of such "tokenization" seem vague to me.

Anyone that is telling you they know exactly how the virus works, how it can be prevented or treated, and exactly what decision would result in the best outcome is a fraud. 

I can't find the infographic but a while ago, I think it might've been 538, they published an article about second choice voting and Andrew Yang had the highest rate of voters should would not elect to support the democratic nominee if their candidate didn't win, which makes sense. Yang was the candidate, and Tulsi, that could pull voters from both aisles together and cause voters to cross party lines. Bernie, on the other hand, had the second highest number of supporters that would not support the democratic nominee if he were not to win the the nomination. This should be terrifying for the DNC.

Well, it's not surprising but still has a bit of a shock feel to it because many thought he would ride it until the convention. Bernie supporters seem extremely upset with this being Sanders's last run at a Presidential bid so I'm not sure if they're going to fall immediately in line to support Joe Biden. Some will, but a lot won't. Trump already took advantage of this by tweeting an invitation for democrats to join the Republican aisle which is hilariously Trump-like. Meanwhile, Joe Biden continues to have gaffe after gaffe so it's clear that upset Bernie voters either won't show up at the polls or will vote for Trump as retaliation against the DNC.

Biden was on a debate stage and couldn't even commit running for a second term so I have no clue how he's going to hold up in a general against Trump who isn't going to hold back. Keeping him in the race is elderly abuse at this point.

It's so sad! But I think he has done it to prevent people from voting in the primaries coming out in Corona crisis as he thought it was kind of impossible to defeat Biden now. He's one of the people I respect for his loyalty towards his policies and decades of dreams of becoming the president. Truly sad! He might un-suspend but that's unlikely.... Joe Biden can consider him as vice president as a Biden-Bernie or a Bernie-Biden ticket would be deadly for Trump! https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/04/us/politics/biden-sanders-vice-president-running-mate.html , I hope Bernie accepts if he's offered the ticket :/
