Many Wall Street analysts are noting that the numbers seem to be going down, or leveling off.

and suggesting that is the reason the market is going up

I do not know whether that is a reason for the market uptick or not, but I do sense that a good number of people becoming more complacent

With schools opening, and less testing going on, that is playing with fire in my view

1. Interesting that began happening as soon as the White House gained control of the numbers.

5. They would like to have control of the numbers, but there are enough independent sources out

their, such as John Hopkins, that do their own independent tabulations

I think perhaps the biggest issue is that trump has restarted his so-called press conferences, and is spewing out a lot of misinformation

A lot of schools are opening in areas where the virus is still quite high, and I think the potential for a resurgence quite high in those areas

4. They're welcome to enjoy it while it lasts . . .

Meanwhile, schools reopening, Sturgis and Labor Day will likely keep things lively in the near-term.

6. and influenza season is right around the corner

8. Flu Season maybe mild.

With lack of international travel, the flu may not seed in the U.S. as in a non-pandemic environment.

I believe the U.S. Treasury is buying stocks ... plus billionaires gaming the system to make themselves even richer. Frankly, even though I have to own stocks for my 401K ... the stock market is a joke.

And since we don't really have a plan to combat COIVD, it is going to ebb and flow.

9. Yes, Flu season will likely be muted

Even half-assed procedures to limit Corona will dampen the flu. We are already seeing a mild flu season in the southern hemisphere.
