I think it will eventually get back to 30K in a couple of years. The most recent bottom was set in 2007 and the world learned from that experience. The world's financial institutions will again adapt, gain experience, and invest and spend even more intelligently after this.
Again, don't worry about a number you have very little control over. Focus on improving your life, your family's life, and your community.

I just wish I had a bunch of cash right now. There are some fire sale bargains for excellent companies right now.

I have an order for UAL at $17.85. Unreal opportunity in this market. I am going airlines and hotels bc I think that is the first industry to get help from the government.

The Dow is now lower than when Trump was inaugurated I know we are back in obama times with regard to the market. The bear was coming and we are nearing the bottom, then we go up. Ride it. The pandemic chinese flu is greatly exaggerated by the liberal media. This is fueling a last ditch effort by the left to remove President Trump from office. 60 million USA citizens contracted the Swine flu in 2009-2010. 300,000 died from it. From the media then= crickets. The media is driving this end of world frenzy (no offense to Frenzy). This will pass. Non diversified investors will learn a valuable lesson from this.

I got a tad of American Airlines and Marriot. The New York Hilton Midtown, NYC largest hotel, will close its 1,878 rooms indefinitely. The Baccarat hotel will turn off the lights on March 21, along with scores of other NYC hotels I wouldn’t touch the hospitality industry with a 100’ barge pole And about gubment help... how many Washington lobbyists are leaning on pols right now pleading their cases for their industries

It seems the working class, many of who have little or no sick leave or health care, are the ones who drive the economy, not the CEOs or the wealthy.

That’s fake news Bob. Please don’t be like cnn spreading false propaganda. Between April 12, 2009, and April 10, 2010, the CDC estimates swine flu caused 60.8 million illnesses, 273,304 hospitalizations and 12,469 deaths in the U.S.

No. The Fed is out of interest rate reductions and the US is out of cash with 1t dollar deficits. The is very little ammo left in the arsenal. My financial advisor has always said when the next one hits, it will be historic in nature. This is why I sold everything after the first 1000 point drop last month when the DOW was still around 27000.
He is truly a sick individual.

It’s up to the American workers, not the government or policy makers. The pursuit of happiness is done with group effort. The me, me, me generations want what’s best for each individual...but the pursuit is what is best for all.
