New York City has 8.5M people. If just 5% get coronavirus (a low number for something this contagious), that's 425,000. Fauci said today that 15%-20% require hospitalization. That's 65,000. de Blasio said we have 1200 hospital beds available. Scary.

So to summarize: Stocks could either soar or tank if there's a blue wave. However, there's ZERO doubt that if there's a red wave, stocks could either soar or tank. It gets a bit dicey though if votes are split between red & blue. In THAT case, stocks could either tank or soar.

It's been said by others but I'll say it too: The way China is reporting almost an identical number of new coronavirus cases each day (approximately 3000) MUST be a reflection of its diagnosis capacity rather than the true caseload, which is likely much worse.
