I thought about converting to cash, but didn't act on it. Too late now. I think it will pass, may take as much as two years for the virus to pass. No idea how hard it will hit the markets. I think for some stocks it will take almost 2 yrs. to recover after start of recovery..whenever that will be. Anyway, some stocks that seem trying to hold...are actually in renewables/alternative energy. Canada's economic recovery is compounded by the railway blockades across national rail freight lines by some native Indian groups and supporters. Some small Canadian firms are getting orders to produce, because their Chinese suppliers can't manufacture stuff right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we are going to find alot of this in the future. Countries just can't afford to keep everything in one basket. Mudkipz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Countries do have to become more self-reliant in crises like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bad something horrible like this virus would push this idea home. Mudkipz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest we don't go work, no restaurants, no stores. For sure economy will tank after the big run to the stores to stock up on food, supplies.
