FAT LADY NOT SINGIN YET
On November 2st the U.S. had a 44% increase in daily COVID-19 to 93,581. The chart below indicates the second wave of infections did not decline to the first wave low. Thus, experts forecast a third winter wave peak of cases will be higher than the second spring wave peak...
..For investors, this is the time to prepare for a possible severe economic storm coming this winter. Scott Minerd, Global CIO at Guggenheim, observes that we have a pause now giving us time to prepare for an economic whirlwind:

The trend of new cases is exploding in the US. One only has to compare numbers to a week earlier. Every single day this week the case numbers increased by over 30k compared to 7 days earlier. Hospitalizations are increasing several thousand per day as well. If hospitals fill up like they did during the first wave, the US is going to see some ugly death numbers again.
Trump is still in charge until inauguration day. What is he doing about it? Tweeting, golfing, having tantrums, and firing people.
Worst President ever.
some paintings are darker.. In 2003 I made this movie/painting..
CHAOS
it became popular on youtube and was shown on classicFM tv..
Branka parlić was kind enough to give her permission..
for me to use her recording of..
Gnossienne No.1 by Erik Satie..
to use as the sound track..
it was broadcast several times on classic FM tv and is on youtube..
people think that it is a music video and that my film is just incidental to the music..
which may be so now..
but it was conceived originally as a visual piece..
I had initially filmed in focus but the result was not interesting..
only when the shooting was out of focus was chaos born..
in the year 2000 I was using video to paint with..
it was not high definition but was the best quality I could afford at the time..
I wanted to make a movie/painting of the goose fair..

(August 19)
July 2020 Cass Freight Index® Held in Deep Annual Contraction,
Consistent With Bottom–Bouncing Manufacturing,
but Running Increasingly Counter to “Booming” Retail Sales
(CassInfo.com, see detail at https://www.cassinfo.com/freight-audit-payment/cass-transportation-indexes/july-2020).
The year-to-year annual decline
of 13.1% (-13.1%) in the July 2020 Cass Freight Index®
remained deep in Pandemic-driven recession territory,
having moved off its 17.8% (-17.8%) drop in June,
and the near-record 23.6% (-23.6%) contraction in May,
which held shy of the April 2009 Great Recession trough record plunge of 25.0% (-25.0%).
The Cass Index’s consecutive monthly year-to-year declines
and deepening month-to-month declines in the 12-month trailing average
held in place for the 20th straight month.
Those year-to-year and 12-month-moving-average metrics neutralize seasonality
in this unadjusted series.
ShadowStats regularly follows and analyzes the Cass Index
as a highest-quality coincident and leading indicator of underlying economic reality.
We thank Cass for their permission to graph and to use their numbers in our Commentaries.
NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT
yo!.. virus loves ta party... innit!
More than 400,000 people are thought to have attended this year's Sturgis Motorcycle Rally over the course of 10 days
It is extremely transmissible, through not just coughed droplets but also a fine aerosol mist that is expelled when people talk loudly, laugh or sing and that can linger in indoor air. As a result, masks are far more effective than scientists once believed.
Virus carriers with mild or no symptoms can be infectious, and there may be 10 times as many people spreading the illness as have tested positive for it.
The infection may start in the lungs, but it is very different from influenza, a respiratory virus. In severely ill patients, the coronavirus may attach to receptors inside the veins and arteries, and move on to attack the kidneys, the heart, the gut and even the brain, choking off these organs with hundreds of tiny blood clots.
Most of the virus’s victims are elderly, but it has not spared young adults, especially those with obesity, high blood pressure or diabetes. Adults aged 18 to 49 now account for more hospitalized cases than people aged 50 to 64 or those 65 and older.
Children are usually not harmed by the virus, although clinicians were dismayed to discover a few who were struck by a rare but dangerous inflammatory version. Young children appear to transmit the virus less often than teenagers, which may affect how schools can be opened.
Among adults, a very different picture has emerged. Growing evidence suggests that perhaps 10 percent of the infected account for 80 percent of new transmissions. Unpredictable superspreading events in nursing homes, meatpacking plants, churches, prisons and bars are major drivers of the epidemic.
YOUR VIRUS NEEDS YOU
without you it will die..
distance is not futile..
apart we can stop this thing..
oh yeah!..
and wear a mask
here is a reply to a comment on mish's site
It's obvious that you believe that it's OK that a certain percentage of people will die or be permanently harmed because you are unwilling to wear a mask, or enforce mask-wearing, or social distancing.
Because no-one actually wants businesses to be shut down or closed. That is the honest truth.
What Sweden is showing is that if people can maintain social discipline, there is less need for hard shut-downs.
Wear an effn mask. Keep your distance. Don't hang out in bars shouting over the noise and music. Simple stuff like that. That's it. It's not hard.
It's the ignorant or the assholes who push up the rate of infections by refusing to do those simple things.
As a result, it is the ignorant and assholes who are ending up making stricter closures necessary because the ignorant and assholes are making more people sick faster than what would have happened and are killing people who otherwise might not have died at this time.
