A COVID-19 cure? Even more reason to lockdown
With reports that chloroquine - an EXISTING anti-malarial - and/or its derivatives, in combination with an antimicrobial, has had a 100% success rate at curing COVID-19 means we have lots of hope now!

US & UK missed the opportunity to have low Covid19 numbers
The US & UK have the highest spread rates (ie daily % increase of cases) out of the most infected countries. And Spain is re-spiking & Australia is not much better.

The Covid19 update with the data. SUNDAY update.
Some good and bad news today as usual. Australia is as yesterday. Probably lost ability to nip it totally. We'll be bunkering down at home by mid-week to next weekend IMO.

Why will Tesla end up with a multi-trillion $ market cap?
Anyone following Tesla would be aware of the controversy in valuing this company (currently around $150B), putting aside the coronavirus fears for a moment which we all hope will be temporary of course. With bulls like Catherine Wood's Ark Invest quoting an incredible $2.7T within four years and the bears and shorts predicting bankruptcy only …
