News: Senate Majority Leader John Thune just met with President Trump. He said the topic of firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell didn't come up though the president remains frustrated with the Fed chair on interest rates

Thune, though, said Fed renovations do require more oversight

[Jim Bianco @biancoresearch]

Instead Shadow Fed Chairman Warsh will deal with Powell.

Explain to me why we should spent taxpayer money to bailout companies (airlines) who spent their cash buying their own stock so the CEO gets optionality, instead of having a crisis buffer.

We should bail out individuals based on needs, not corporations.

The remaining markets question of the week, for those who care about charts - does the S&P close below its Christmas Eve low from 2018? The last hour should be interesting.

Beware Journalistic Fallacies

Italy is NOT "risking" the economy to fight the virus. It is lowering the risk for the economy by fighting the virus.
