(One of) The terrible consequence of lockdownThis crap spread to Europe.
Meanwhile Sweden having a beautiful and calm summer.
Russia has already called covid-19 a hoax, because they claim 12.5% of the city have antibodies, and less than 2000 died, they estimated a death rate of 0.12%
"At least 12.5% of Moscow population has covid-19 antibodies".
www.rt.com
Madrid has also 10 to 14% of its population that developped antibodies.
20% of people tested in New York had antibodies.
I heard Germany interior ministery called covid-19 a hoax but could not confirm and I expect this to be an exageration.
The russian supreme court, back more than 1 month ago has banned (with strict punishment) the proliferation of fear mongering.
Remember in 2016 Putin banned the Rothschild New World Order banking cabal from Russia "under any circumstance" and declared "total independance".
George Soros is also banned from Russia (plus a few other countries).
Trump has retweeted a fox news segment that contained (this was just part of it) a part where a man - afro american btw - said the US should have "deported George Soros several decades ago he's a destruction to our civilisation and a clear and present danger to our country"
This cracks me up, don't want to spread conspiracy theories, just saying this is how people feel about Soros, the Rothschilds and their "philanthropy" and "New World Order", I mean these guys literally said there should be an international coalition of big bankers that would be a government to govern all nations...
If the US kicks Soros out, make sure to send Bill Gates and his vaccine along.
The majority of the population is not mentally insane and we'll get out of this stronger. Or alive at least that would be nice.
We really have to do something about the over urbanisation and the high incidence of mental illnesses.
GDP in Q2 predicted to contract by 50%!
Before thinking of buying cheap shares in the future, or shorting when really wise retail investor stop buying, the priority is to stay alive.
I think Europe should do allright, people are mentally ill and absolute cucks but they are not as angry as young americans that are literally poor people.
Americans that live anywhere but in ultra progressive democrat run cities should be ok. The rest... yikes, absolute devastation.
And how will people even eat of the stores are all burned down? Well anyway no point dragging into this cancer I'll end this idea here.
"Maybe saddling an entire generation of kids with debt & no hope of joining the property class while sending them to institutions that marinate them in neo-Marxist ideology wasn't such a good idea."

Covid-19: EU and NA countries have the hugest death ratesLooking at how many people got infected and how many died, seems like countries that used cheap drugs to treat this cold have slowed the spread most and also have much less deaths.
Countries with really lots of deaths have went full lockdown and GDP took a huge hit, like -15% projections.
15% of GDP... could buy a WHOLE lot of drugs with this...
Right now, governments of the countries with the most authoritarian measures and the most deaths, due to slow and incompetent bureaucrats, have their approval ratings gone sky high. The bureaucrats are pretty happy about it due to their ignorance. A whole lot of average people are strongly defending their "heroes", approval ratings have gone up 5-40% (of total, not of how much they had before)
This is of course due to the population limitless ignorance, combined to hilarously low intelligence. Fear makes them more stupid also, create more herd mentality.
"Standard deviation becomes lower the larger a group gets" I just made up this quote btw. I'm certain it is true: The larger a group gets, the dumber it gets and opinions vary less! Plenty of reasons for that.
In gambling timing is everything: Filth tier MBS were absolute crap in 2005 yet the price kept going up.
The mistake made is as soon as they realized the things were absolute trash tier and overpriced they rushed in they FOMO'd like Bitcoin dogs, Michael Burry went all in and held the bag for years with his clients losing their minds. Don't get me wrong these guys are smart, maybe even genius tier (depends on the definition if above 130 then the odds are high if above 160 the prob not lol), and they are money smart, still FOMO'd like noobs the second they saw the mispricing.
So here, first GDPs are getting decimated, at that point I'm even going to go long the SEK probably even thought I kept saying it would go to zero :p. It will go to zero but europe and the usa will go to zero faster!
And then this approval spike... Won't last long. So depends when elections are. If (probably) and when the information reaches the brain, is when people will get pissed and everything. Plus they are going to understand very fast the great depression when it breaks their jaws. Pain is an understanding accelerator.
Predicting in advance, understanding what others don't is essential, but then it is necessary to know that the market and the world isn't a reflection of the truth, it moves when info reaches people brain. Something obvious for years will have no effect and then the second, literally second, the information reaches the herd brain they will rush (for the exits?) at lightspeed (why in such a hurry? The info was available and obvious for years).
People are going to be pissed at certain pharma companies possibly? People will be pissed at governments? Dumb people don't think alot but they get angry alot. Expecting rioting. Well no point speculating too much there is plenty of time. Took me a few minutes to figure it all out, so should take the herd a couple of years.
Some countries numbers:
I tried comparing countries with similar climate and similar populations or confirmed cases if possible.
Israel got 2.4 million doses of experimental coronavirus drug (chloroquine) and more:
www.jpost.com
Japan has been using an antiviral:
www.theguardian.com
Russia since march has been producing and using an anti-malaria drug (Mefloquine)
www.aa.com.tr
Europe and North America have been fighting treatments and promoting expensive patented drugs that don't work.
They have thought drugs that work for what? Protecting idiots that self medicate?
And what a surprise, they have the biggest death rates. Poor countries are doing much better than rich ones except sea ones.
Weird since french army stockpiled chloroquine "in case it does work".
Making sure they have something to offer to an invading country to help negotiate surrender.
Business owners have imported chloroquine to give to their workers and got in trouble (stupid people that self medicated have died).
There all sorts of treatments, here is something "A single treatment able to effect ~5000-fold reduction in virus at 48 h in cell culture."
www.sciencedirect.com
In france our main ID expert in the spotlight said
"We have with my team made some of the greatest virology discoveries of the XXI century"
"Scientists are not equal just like Lebron James isn't equal to amateur players" (something like that)
"I am one of the greatest experts in the world but I avoid herd meetings" (avoiding the herd like Tesla)
"Avoid at all costs consensus and political correctness"
And my favorites
"People criticizing me are children!"
"I don't care about their critics/opinions. I refuse to debate with people that have a too low level of knowledge"
A little too polite. I prefer the Dan Pena style.
And from now on I refuse to argue with the typical Bitcoin & Tesla bulls.
Warren Buffet in March said he wouldn't sell any more airline company but he dumped everything (on retail bottom chasers btw).
The perma bull white knight of the USA stock market ran for the exit, and he has the biggest cash position ever seen.
But sure don't worry, every thing will be alright.
I hope the USA will go for Stalin rather than Hitler, kill his own people rather than start a huge war and kill others. The USA are "terrified" of "the far right", and there's lots of marxists there. Excellent. BurgerLand will become a godforsaken hellhole, they'll kill each other, and the stock market will go to zero, while I'll be chilling. Don't want far right guys like Trump that threaten foreign nations and do trade wars (Trump+ does more than trade wars). Gogo democrat socialism.
Burgerland is in dire need of socialism and more antifa. Please god, please let them kill each other and ignore us and not nuke anyone.
"Buuut you are wishing ill on the usa" ... actually no I'm not going to lower myself to explain.
Ahem * clears throat *
DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN! EVERYTHING WILL CRASH! DOWNTREND FOR YEARS! ONLY DOWN! ECONOMIES WILL NEVER RECOVER!
EVERYONE WILL LOSE MONEY EXCEPT BEARS! MASSIVE UNEMPLOYEMENT AND POVERTY! HUGE EXTREMISM! US STOCKS ARE DOOMED THEY WILL NEVER GO UP AGAIN!
