With record claims for unemployment, hundreds dying, many businesses already bankrupt the stockmarket is soaring with over 20% gain last few days which is defined as bull market. Trump and his cohorts just print more money whenever there is a downturn and investors latch on. Back in January/February when the virus was sweeping through Asia the US stockmarket was at record highs. Absolute craziness. On the thoroughbred forum in January when Te Akau's Ellis was spending millions I said it was a mistake as the stockmarket was going to crash. That was when the market was rising and at an all time high. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stockmarket will return to all time highs. IMO Ohokaman 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trump 2,741 Report post Posted April 30, 2020 On 2/25/2020 at 6:22 AM, Trump said: The cover-up is almost as big as this virus. IMHO It’s going to cause a big recession - world wide. I hope Im wrong. Those govts with poor balance sheets are going to have a bad time. Tourism and trade are being hit hard. The Tokyo Olympics are in jeopardy after 20 years of infrastructure planning by the Japanese. Poor buggars. Chinese restaurants are ghost restaurants on the Gold Coast. Tour bus operators are hurting bad. Food exporters to China have to find new markets. It’s chaos and I don’t think people realise how bad it is. Wuhan-400 could be the “big one”. It’s a funny feeling being a prophet. I wish this skill translated to picking Race winners! arjay 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripple alliance 1,005 Report post Posted August 10, 2020 Interesting opinions here , the lefty's must be disappointed the way things are going , share market almost back to where it was and gold at record levels ($3084 NZ ) , a lefty doomsayer nightmare . For me , I posted early in the thread , I bailed at 51.5c it carried on down to 30c great but the problem was I had to jump back in at 60c , bugger but very thankful I got back in , today $1.12 , happy days but as we all know the wheels can still fall off .
