A 50% loss would result in the need to make a 100% gain to break
even, if you bought back the same stock at what you sold it for.
If the stock declined another 50% you could buy twice the amount
you sold but you'd still need a 100% gain to break
even.

If the stock rose 50% after you sold it would cost you 25% more to
buy it back. If the stock regained its original value it would
cost you twice as much as you sold it for, to buy it
back.

Numbers dont lie.
I suppose that means to hang on to it?

If they are really serious that we are going to hit stop on the
economic engine until they declare the virus is contained, the economy
might not start when we hit go.
The debt bomb we are all dreading may have gone off by then and we
will be in worse shape than 2008-9 with the central banks failing not
just AIG and Lehman.
I understand that is probably not going to happen but it isn't as
unrealistic as some of the predictions I am hearing about this virus.

Another dire prediction? When, and if, this is all over, you will undoubtedly
win the prize for the most dire predictions!

Greg, just a thought:

China is America's biggest creditor by far.
Is China going to call the note?

And even if they did, what if the USA just said, "**** you"?

Is China going to turn it over to a collection agency? :-)

If the entire world's currency was devalued by 20%, would it make a ****? I'm no
economist, just wondering.
