I suspected The Street was going to figure a way to get in between these funds and Main Street, and it looks like I was right.

Crud, meant to add the Reuters piece, from this AM:

Have you ever considered how we neglect the ass?
I mean, if you would get feces in your face, would you settle with wiping it off with a paper towel and then go about your day?
Something to ponder…
So he bought CDS to cover the backside of his trades, big deal. Bought the private "insurance" (it's a binary option, not insurance, but marked to market) when no one believed shit would hit the fan, a k a "Cheap" and sold it when it did "expensive". The proper hedge for "When it hits"….
Be prepared for a possible "flare-up" in a major red state city.
They're going to need something to dominate the news cycle now that NYC is leveling off.
Birx mentioned Texas a few times yesterday, so maybe Houston or Dallas.
Focus will prolly be on the African-American population getting hit hard.
Both cities have Dem black mayors and can become the new foil for POTUS.
Excellent article. Noticed how Birx was laying on the emotion thick the last few press conferences. And Fausti attacking any questioning of the numbers as "conspiracy theories".

It’s rendered as: "relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief".
Now, does this apply to coronavirus? The answer is that it depends on whether you can regard statistics as “objective facts” in a post-truth world.
If you can’t, then the response to the coronavirus falls - in a simple and quite uncomplicated way - into the second half of that definition of post-truth: it’s been driven almost entirely by appeals to emotion and personal belief.
The statistics then, are key.
They are the key battleground between those who would uphold the lockdown as an appropriate governmental response to coronavirus, and those who seek to discredit it and who prefer instead to put the economic and mental welfare of the nation first.
Ackman had Herbalife, numerically, figured out, just had no idea how much political cover the firm had through Justin, a k a downside insurance. They bled him out of his trade.

Keep your eyes out for deaths coded UO7.2
NVSS COVID-19 Alert No. 2 - March 24, 2020
New ICD Code Introduced for COVID-19 Deaths
When will this be implemented?
Immediately
What is the new code?
UO7.1 COVID-19
The WHO has provided a second code U07.2 for clinical or epidemiological diagnosis of COVID-19 where a laboratory confirmation is inconclusive or not available.
Will COVID-19 be the underlying cause?
The underlying cause depends upon what and where conditions are reported on the death certificate.
However, the rules for coding and selection of the underlying cause of death are expected to result in COVID19 being the underlying cause more often than not.
