    Key Points
    • President Donald Trump said he and first lady Melania Trump have tested positive for coronavirus, a stunning development just over a month away from Election Day.
    • In a tweet, Trump said, “We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!”
    • Trump has come under withering criticism for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic in the United States, where more than 7.2 million have been infected and 200,007 people have died.

    completely justifiable.

    if he took it seriously and put the well being of the american public before his own political prospects, then not at all.

    but that's just not the case.

    President Trump infected? Probably just fake news. He is trying to dodge another debate with Biden.

    I know nothing about the US process. Does the election go ahead with or without Trump?

    cyrille ... humm

    Most people on here seem happy that Trump has the Covid-19 but the US market futures are showing a fall of 486 points at the open ... meaning they are not happy.

    newbie dave....do you trade on the US futures market?

    didn't think so.

    wait until the open before you go into hysterics.....dow futures are already at -292...which is a massive....err....kind of big....ummm.....1% off yesterday's close....so much for "not happy"

    btw, as you've already been told, the dow consists of only 30 stocks and is not representative of the broader US market.

    i think many would agree that a better gauge of the stock market's reaction to this news would be the vix.

    A stock market index is not happy.

    No, that still doesn't make sense, Dave.

    Ray
    and cyrille ... time to stop digging

    2020 US Presidential Race-screenshot_2020-10-02-vix-cboe-volatility


    Ray, the 'DOW' is the first listed index on this financial page ... and many, if not most others.

    But, of course, Ray knows more the Financial Markets.


    Ray, the VIX, the Fear Index is UP 7.98%

    A very TRUMP'ish post by you.

    Who fucking cares? The markets are always volatile when there is change. They like predictability.

    It means precisely fuck all in the big picture.

    That is the first thing I thought.

    Trump will do anything to avoid another debacle like the first debate.

    Buying time to fix the problems he himself has created.
