The September 2020 News Summary: The Coronavirus Pandemic continued to be the main theme throughout September, but there were several other news items that had their turns at dominating the news for a day or so. The Coronavirus Pandemic tallies as of today at 12:33PM Eastern US by the John Hopkins University CSSE unit is now 33,799,264 confirmed cases globally with 1,010,381 deaths, an increase of 162,351, a 6% downward trend from August. For the US it’s 7,219,635 confirmed cases and 206,665 deaths, an increase of 23,266, a 24% downward trend from August. There are now vaccine candidates in Phase 3 testing, results should be known within a few weeks. If it looks good then it appears that a vaccine should be available by the end of 2020/early 2021, production and logistics plans are being developed for quick deployment. Rapid tests are also coming to market, with concerns about false positive/negative results being at higher percentages than would be liked. Schools and universities opened up in a variety of formats with mixed results and opinions. Several major college conferences reversed course and decided to play football, basketball and other fall sports, with shortened seasons, frequent testing of athletes and staff, to empty stadiums, and with different playoff methods. At the professional level football is being played, as is basketball, with interuptions from positive COVID-19 tests, and the Tampa Bay Lightning won hockey’s Stanley Cup Championship in a shortened season. In international trade and news the US and China continue to have stalled trade negotiations, with some of that being the controversy over popular China based app TikTok, which apparently can capture a lot of individual information. A deal in which Oracle and Walmart acquire, or have controlling interest in the US version has the blessing of the US, but not necessarily China, and needs to be resolved by 11/12/20. A major and unexpected international agreement brokered by the US was the ‘Abraham’ peace accords signed by Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. The US economy is recovering, maybe at a slower pace, but is considered out of recession. Jobs results are a little mixed, several major corporations and industries, especially travel, are announcing major layoffs. Manufacturing seems to be increasing. Retail is starting to hire for the upcoming holiday season. Home sales and new construction are up. The Federal Reserve modified its 2% inflation guidelines which would keep federal short term interest rates very low for a few years. At the end of the month a new stimulus package appeared to be eminent, but apparently became stalled. Wildfires raged in California, Oregon, and Washington, displacing hundreds of thousands of people and destroying homes and businesses. The Gulf Coast was hit by Hurricane Sally and caused widespread damage as well. In US government news revered Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away at 87, considered to be a liberal member, and most noted for being a strong crusader for women’s rights. In a controversial move President Trump quickly nominated conservative and highly regarded jurist Amy Coney Barrett as the successor, which would clearly define SCOTUS as conservative. Senate hearings on her confirmation start 10/12/20 and it appears that she could be approved and take the vacant seat by the 11/03/20 election day, which would be a record for shortest time to get through the process. The US 2020 Presidential Election Race experienced a very contentious and chaotic first debate between President Donald Trump and former Vice-President Joe Biden. Next is a Vice President debate followed by two more presidential debate encounters. The major US stock exchanges were volatile in September, impacted significantly by a technology sector selloff. However, by the end of the month both the NASDAQ and S&P500 were ahead for the year with the Dow Jones retreating back into negative territory. The Stock Market Bull and The Stock Market Bear both had their moments in the day-to-day gore and slash battles, but in the end The Stock Market Bear took the 9th month victory by a wide margin, but still lagging year-to-date. There is a lot going on, many moving parts, many varying expert opinions, it’s anyone’s guess about what will happen. Enjoy the rollercoaster ride that appears certain for October.
The September 2020 tally YTD is:
The Stock Market Bull: 5 months
The Stock Market Bear: 3 months
Mixed Results: 1 month
