BTW stock market losses don't really count, because there is a winner for every loser. The net impact is small. GDP losses OTOH imply a loss of production. That is a real loss, though what remains will be spread over less people, so the net effect per head of population may not be too severe. > >https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/stock-market-selloff-impact-americans-3-charts-not-immediate-impact-2020-2-1028952948 > > >On Thu, Mar 5, 2020 at 11:06 AM Frank Znidarsic <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> https://www.yahoo.com/news/coronavirus-spreads-one-study-predicts-101552222.html >> Regards, Robin van Spaandonk local asymmetry = temporary success
