    Without business feeling full effects of the pandemic - thats just the predictions not posting of actual losses. I think there’s more to go later when it’s realised.

    I think about listing my IPs for sale and using the proceeds to go all in on the stock market but I'm too scared. That's why I like property better than shares, it's unlikely I'd suffer a 30-50% drop in value.

    It's a lot of fun to watch. Good time to trade right now (just do go long!)

    Edit: you messed up the thread title, though. I think you meant "Dow tanks another 9.28%" :)

    Isn't the whole point of BTC as digital gold? That whole theory is now proven false I think, could get very interesting

    Just another day..
    Plus there is no absolute protection against this black swan scenario as it will hit all aspects of life and virtually all people..Someone living off the land in a remote area will suffer less then most that live in industrial urban areas will suffer considerably..

    Befuddled,
    What program do you use to buy/sell stocks? You provided a screenshot of one.

    Any suggestions on the better programs to also use on desktop and phone.

    Thanks in advance.
