"Once the vaccine is developed, it will take at least 90 days to complete the regulatory process and potentially more to enter the marketplace." It seems like the media, in its push to churn content out as quickly as possible, has completely ...
Israeli scientists: 'In three weeks, we will have coronavirus vaccine'

I think this about more than just the bubble. It is also the Donald Trump reelection. With Bernie Sanders coming strongly ahead among the Democratic Party contenders, noone in the big moneyed class is looking forward to feeling the bern.
Traders Now Betting On Two March Rate Cuts As OIS Craters
- ekan commented Feb 27, 2020
The kind of stuff that happens today really "proves" technical analysis works! Dow was being driven down hard, it touched exactly 26 k being the 500-day moving average, and bounced like a clockwork. Simultaneously, EURUSD completed a nice ...

I have the nasty suspicion that it will take more than a tweet from LieSqueal to kick off the real move. Looks more like a bear trap. It seems like the down move was arrested at support at ~1.287xx, if it gets rejected again, the range is still on.
UK Is Said To Be Willing To Trade On No-Deal Basis With EU If Talks Are To Fail

Yes, correct, The House ratifies the trade deals. However, that is a rather arcane detail that is usually dropped from consideration in media stories and lay commentaries thereon.
EU's Barnier: ready to offer UK super preferential access to EU markets
- ekan commented Feb 26, 2020
That kind of depends who answers that question, actually. For BoJo and the merry band of Brexiteers, they let it be know far and wide by shouting very very loudly that the answer is a "hard brexit". Other folk in UK, especially those with real ...

German Finance Minister Plans To Suspend Debt Brake Temporarily

No. This is what you said: "They can contain the virus and they can create vaccine based on data from survivors." A meaningless sentence that is woefully short on detail and specifics. My reply was quite detailed, and then I said exactly why that ...
If the coronavirus isn’t contained, a severe global recession is almost certain
- ekan commented Feb 25, 2020
No, "they" - whoever that may be - can't. A vaccine cannot be INTELLIGENTLY DESIGNED, the complexity of the immune response is way beyond what the state of the art of science is. In a few centuries, maybe. All vaccines are discovered by trial and ...

Technically speaking, if this post indeed reports a real fact, they actually have a VACCINE CANDIDATE. It needs to pass clinical trials for safety and efficiency, whether following an accelerated procedure permissible in the case of public health ...
Will the Coronavirus Trigger a Global Recession?
- ekan commented Feb 22, 2020
This article presents the affair based on wrong premise to begin with. It has little to do with Brexit per se. The departure of UK probably affects the whole affair mostly by the "stingy four" not being "stingy five". Had UK stayed, the negotiations ...

Whereas it is true that there is no SIGNED FTA between Australia and EU, the negotiations for it have been going for sometime now (since mid 2018 to be exact), and of course without all the acrimony typical for Brexit: url Another news that I ...

First let's see what the numbers look like (Wikipedia data for 2018 or latest available, % of GDP). Data for eurozone is not available, so I use the data for Germany and France as a proxy, plus showing the largest and lowest with the respective ...
