I see this as 80% Corona and 20% Bernie. Baron will keep it here as it's trading-related.

80% coronavirus..haaaa

Again as I must repeat, wallstreet doesnt care about the Coronavirus, it's just an excuse to use. Once the coronavirus is gone the dow will catapult to 30,000. Stop worrying about this coronavirus

WS doesn't care but it will dot-shot once the risk is gone? You were dropped on your head?

The SPX will not close above 3450 before the election. The mkt is a short and more so on any Corona relief rally in the 2nd Q.

It's baked in. Get hit for a day and then back to business as usual.

Strong conviction. Does that mean that you're outright short via delta-1? While I am cheering for the market to implode, I'd not short it. It feel like such a widow-maker trade after all these years.

Nothing significant in D1. Almost all vol.

U think Bernie will even make it through a brokered convention ?

Definitely Puts on the first relief rally. Any tests of 3325-3355 is a gift at this point. Hoping I can get in around there

We overshot. 1000 Dow due to 150 cases in Italy? Yes, the realization of a Bernie victory is beginning to take hold. That’s why this thread exists.

I didn’t cover a single contract. I bought futures against my shorts. I am almost neutral here.
