ZFX: Failing to calm coronavirus fears, cash out!

Review:

On Monday (March 16), the financial market was still panic. Global stock markets have dropped sharply like disaster. The Dow plunged near 3000 points, the biggest drop since 1987. Even though the Federal Reserve announced another emergency rate cut to zero, together with the $700 billion quantitative easing (QE), the three major Wall Street indexes plunged over 10%, triggering the fourth market halt in history. The S&P 500 index fell by about 12%. The Dow fell 2997 points, nearly triggering the second market halt in one day (if drop more than 13%).

ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said, as mentioned earlier, the more and more emergency measures, the more and more panic in market. If the global epidemic cannot be controlled, more “Black Monday” are just likely.

Last night, US President Trump said that the U.S. epidemic could last until July or August, and warned that the U.S. might go into economic recession due to the epidemic, and market confidence collapsed again.

At present, this is undoubtedly a market chaos. Investors or professional investors, traders and funds etc. all want to liquidize the position and “cash out”as soon as possible in all market. A rapid sell-off caused an obvious deleveraging situation.

In the morning Asian session today, some positive news helped the market to bounce back slightly. Trump said that the first phase of clinical trials of the new coronavirus vaccine has begun, saying that it is the fastest vaccine development in history. He said earlier studies showed that the vaccine could help reduce symptoms and speed up cures. Also, he said that the government would control the outbreak at any cost.

In addition, leaders of G7 also held emergency video conferences for the global pandemic issue, like vaccine development, follow-up action of preventive measures, and relevant policies in financial markets. G7 stated that “all necessary measures” will be taken to deal with the global pandemic after the conference, including fiscal stimulus and vaccine development.

ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said that it is important to note that, in markets where uncertainty remains extremely high, any positive news will only be effective in short term.
