#2 The wealthy knew the storm on the horizon was coming. They have unloaded. Sell high buy low. In December or earlier the Baltic dry index was extremely poor,low shipping numbers. So low inventories. Low expectations. Then at least your on hand inventory tax will be low. Corporate prudence to hold onto cash. Borrowing is out of the question. That just digs your hole deeper. High paying jobs will be hit first. Part timers will lose hours. Raise minimum wage and even more cuts. Management will be required to fill in the holes period !, if they want their job. Federal and State governments do not care. They can lose millions, billions even trillions and are not held accountable.
