Default Financial Markets Meltdown

Well, it was bound to happen, the coronavirus is just a convenient trigger....looks like the Dow Jones has shed roughly 1700-1800 points since opening bell yesterday. TSX also down similar. Some folks gonna take a beating. And, as always, some folks are going to get rich. I can't help thinking how make-believe it all seems sometimes, as billions or trillions of dollars 'evaporate'...Will be interesting to see where it lands.
