I know nothing of finance. I use TSP for investing, but basically its split between 50% US stocks and 50% International.

I am expecting stocks in US especially to shit the bed by now, but they didn't. What gives? I thought China closing up shop would kill the Stock Market.

Either the outbreak needs to become a pandemic, or you need to wait until next quarter for the financial consequences to play out imo.

I thought the virus would make investors skittish but I guess I was wrong. I'll keep my investments (a meager 10K) in corporate stocks for a while then until I see more of a concrete reason to move them to government securities.

If China's containment measures are shown to fail (1 to 2 weeks) then they will dip again also.

No it just means people have to get shit from elsewhere which means US production will be in higher demand hence it's all ok.

Also people flipping out of the Chinese market moves their monies into the US market cause it's the most stable.

They were but china pumped it with currency injection and made it illegal to sell, and Tump snubbed Pelosi and Pelosi said bad shit about Trump and everyone forgot.

You gotta do better than that.
Numbers are underreported sure, but the containment isn't going to make the epidemic worse. That's just bad logic.

yeah i think the next 2 or 3 weeks at most will be very key to see how far this spreads and how dangerous it can get.

My hope is that enough chinks die that manufacturing is largely moved back to the US, but I doubt it will be that bad.

We just spent over a year in a trade war with the US and China. In the end the US was fine and China had problems. People see this virus as the same. US is fine without China. China is in trouble without the US.

Quantitative easing, stock markets have been turned into a meme by boomers , everyone is in indexes now meaning that active investing is dead and any clown company will be pumped.

This will increase inflation tough so cryptos will moon because of this.

everyone here is wrong except me. the reason is becasue china has been artificially pumping their stock market and restricting sales of stocks and assets or outright banning them. their stock market literally cant go down right now, by law, it just stays level because nobody is allowed to sell, shorting has been outlawed, and the chinks are pumping billions of dollars a day with fresh printed currency. they cant sustain it for long, and if the virus continues to accelerate (it will) chinas economy will implode and we will feel the effects as supply chains break down since all the factories of our domestic companies are in china. give it a few more weeks and you will see results. only now are a very small amount of people in the usa waking up and realizing how serious this virus is. the vast majority of people are in denial or blissful ignorance
