Short Ideas "if" Corona Virus Hits Our Shores In a Big Way

[vanzandt]

Wow...short ideas? Really. Stop stop....there are absolutely no short ideas!!!! Why? Because this is a non event. If this virus was as worrisome as most think the markets would be down thousands of points now. Markers would probably be closed due to the extreme selling, the fed would have cut rates below 1% by now with QE. The market has entirely ignored the coronavirus and will continue to do so and not only that but the day they announce a slow down in the contagion and find a cure markets will rally 3-5% in a week. Dow will surge pass 30,000. There are no short ideas and never will be......

My the difference a month can make eh?

I see PLNT closed at $53, and while everything is obviously down, PLNT is down 38% while the overall market is down about 21%. They're gonna have a brutal quarter this time around.

S&p will drop right below 2000!!! And even 1500 and maybe 1000 if this pandemic really cause more fear than what it has already in the last 2 weeks. If they shut the entire global economy down to eradicate the virus markets will drop 50% or more across the world!!!!!

Damn. I wish someone would have mentioned the car rental companies. Avis ($CAR) went from $50 to a low of $15. $18 now.

I bet there's some good deals on weekly rentals now.
Cheap gas, cheap hotels, cheap rent-a-cars.... lets have an ET soiree in Fl.
Festivus in April. Bring your "ignore" list. Magna can moderate the "airing of grievances".

Airlines would be a good bet even now especially, those ones based in China. Of course, it depends how fast they develop a vaccine. Those developing vaccines could be big winners if they find a cure for this virus.

AMZN / mail order would most likely be helped-more home deliveries

Ahahahahahah.
Yeah I know.
We'd have to have weight divisions and head gear, or someone would wind up permanently f'd up.
Instead of "moderate" I should have have wrote "Magna can officiate".

DAl is still going down= with the price of fuel way down, they most likely will not get a gov bailout. Socialist France-health care+ Socialist Italy- health care are down + down...………………………………………………………………………………….

Moving on... hmmm.
Are there any movie theater stocks left? They're probably on life-support anyway.

Too bad no one chimed in with Cinemark. ($CNK)
It was $32 that day.
It closed today at $6.96.
