    Maybe. Seriously. There's going to be a lot of people hurting soon.

    We need to bring back the CCC to solely focus on rad mountain bike trails. But to find great builders, we would need to hire Canadians, so I’m not sure how that would work out.

    Visit Timberline lodge on Mt. Hood someday. Pretty cool craftmanship from that time.

    Hoover Dam was the mondo project of the time.

    No Canadians in their right mind would risk their lives going to the US for the foreseeable future

    Canada just puts millions of young adults at their border and gives them all hockey sticks and a case of Moosehead. The Americans flinch.

    Is the stock market going to tank?

    I think we see a trading range between the low and the high we’ve seen the last week or so.

    sure, gains have temporarily retreated .. but principle remains.
    pumped all liquid assets in when dow was <20.

    Sure. Those with the courage to step in when it’s most dire are usually rewarded but I suspect they get that optimism tested.

    I don’t feel that we’re at dire yet. Too expected and timely. I feel the bottom is yet to come especially because we haven’t gotten below 40% off of the high.

    Ima start siphoning in ~bar mitzvah~ money when spy hits 225$. Maybe a lil before because all this optimism’s fuckin w me.

    That's pretty optimistic since SPY was $218 a week ago.

    Citi’s global health-care, strategy and economics teams say governments and health-care providers will be able to supply 60% of U.S. individuals of working age with antibody tests by the end of April, and 95% by the end of May.

    Individuals with elevated antibody levels will then be able to return to the workforce with minimal risk of reinfection or transmission, they say. How many? Such tests could enable between 20,000 and 400,000 of sidelined U.S. workers with previous exposure to COVID-19 to cease lockdown and immediately and safely return to work. Soon after, 90 million workers, representing 60% of the U.S. workforce, could return.

    “While potential therapeutic strategies for COVID-19 seize headlines, we believe diagnostics rather than therapeutics are far better positioned to materially change the economic and even medical outlook for the current COVID-19 pandemic,” say the analysts.

    I’m expecting us to get down to 180 so It’ll be a gradual investment so I don’t screw myself and miss a 10% day of returns on the backend
