Good MorningEquity markets were faced with another brick for the proverbial “wall of worry” on Thursday. The IMF released its latest outlook for global economic activity and the outlook is dire. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its spread across the globe world GDP is expected to be near -5.0% in 2020, a record low.
Adding to the worry is growing sign the U.S. epidemic is getting out of control. Florida, one of the earliest states to reopen and one flooded by tourists, reported a record increase in new cases as did California.
Traders and investors are urged to be cautious. Today’s 2.6% pullback in equity prices may be the beginning of another major sell-off. If it is, be sure to have cash ready when the selling is over. The long-term outlook remains bullish, the pandemic will end sooner or later.
