  1. The bottom is not even close! You will know when bottom is reached when the closing value is zero!

    Vision is 2020!

    1. word of the day: you can bet the wealthy are laughing their asses off. Buy dirt cheap and sell in less that a year for a fortune

    1. Falconz Playz well that might be true… unless you are Chinese and outspoken & critical of the Chinese government!

    1. Governments aren’t responsible for recessions necessarily but definitely did nothing to plan for one so shut up

  2. The super rich are laughing their butts off. They will buy up stock for nothing and make a fortune in a few months. Makes you think maybe somehow they’re all behind all this foolishness.

  3. I hope they close down the TSX stock exchange for 2 months I don’t know how much more going down I lose like $3000 so far since the coronavirus start it☹️🤯😩

  4. What would happen if we were smart and Canada went on a full lock down just like Italy? Only grocery and pharmacies open , no large gathering? Simple life for a bit?

  5. this is the time to invest! let it keep crashing down and invest in something smart. alot of things are going to pick right back up after this virus passes

  6. how can the markets be down 📉 when all the shelves in all the food stores across Quebec are bare 🛒

  7. Thats what you get for attaching yourself to an unstable mess of a a nation like the USA. What kind of leader would allow his nations economy to be reliant on something so provably unstable?
