Could be, some of these companies will die. Might be a few years of recession before things pick up. BMO predictions are for a huge late year rally and recovery, which seems overly optimistic to me.


they already have vaccine candidates that are supposed to be something like 8-9 months before they become available to the public so they are probably assuming that fixes corona if its still an issue and things start to normalize in the end of the year
i think there is a US company who might have one out sooner too sounds like they are skipping animal trials and were about to start human trials soon but still months out before its avail to the public but maybe only like 4-5-6 or something

Yeah I think we're in for a rough ride... Housing prices are astronomical, cost of most things has outpaced wages and the OPEC shenanigans has wrecked the CAD and will cost high paying jobs. Then account for COVID wrecking demand for a lot of industries, which will result in a lot of layoffs and bankruptcies. A lot of people and companies will flat out run out of money. So we haven't seen the worst yet economically.

lol i'd still have to work since it's an essential service to the country. However, if we are ALL forced to stay home for 14 days i would fear that more than the virus itself :rofl:

Read something saying players are tossing around the idea of resuming play in july, continuing the season and playoffs and sacrifice most of the offseason for 20-21

Kind of. It applies to independent merchants who don't sell medical, household or other essential supplies. Items sold by Amazon itself are not affected.
