"...you get a bailout, you get a bailout,(almost) everybody gets a bailout."
It looks like the bail-out and QE schemes have provided a better windshield for capital owners than for the hourly paid employees, if we judge it by the most recent trends. Equities are UP again, while initial claims keep skyrocketing.

We’re gonna need a bigger stimulus

And, as Bloomberg details, assuming a bear market in U.S. stocks has ended because the S&P 500 Index has rallied 25% from its March low, a milestone reached Thursday, flies in the face of recent history. Gains of more than 20% interrupted the 2000-2002 and 2007-2009 bear markets, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

"We believe it’s a 'plateau.' That is relatively good news in a world of bad options. We should start looking to 'reopening'."

With US health data suggesting that the spread of the coronavirus may be nearing a plateau in the U.S., public officials are under growing pressure to chart a path back to normality, something Morgan Stanley did over the weekend when it laid out a projected timeline and milestones for a return to work in the US.

The latest data show that conditions are beginning to improve. New York hospitalizations continued to flatten, with total admissions virtually stable at 18,000 and with ICU patients and intubations declining since Sunday.
See Chart:
Net change in Intubations


However, the number of new active cases looks to be peaking globally, projections of cumulative fatalities and peak healthcare usage are coming down, and even actual new hospitalizations in hard-hit New York City have fallen sharply.
See Chart:
Net Change in total hospitalizations


In a nutshell, optimists think this will allow us to reopen the economy soon. Pessimists counter that the main reason for the improvement is social distancing, which directly corresponds to reduced economic activity; if so, any economic rebound could result in a large second wave of infections, as well as renewed deterioration in the outlook for the death toll and healthcare overloads. Who is right?

According to Goldman, much of the improvement is probably a direct consequence of social distancing and the plunge in economic activity, and could reverse quickly if people just went back to work. But even if this means that a return to “business as usual” is off the table until we have a vaccine, it might be possible to bring back at least part of the lost output with a sharp increase in testing as well as more limited changes to business practices that lower the risk of infection.

Assuming a marginal propensity to spend out of income of 60%, this $5trn income hit might result in a further $3trn reduction in aggregate demand and therefore GDP, according to Goldman calculationsIn turn, this new $3trn GDP hit might show up as another $3trn reduction in private sector income. And so on, until global GDP has contracted by a multiple of the original virus-related impact.

Next steps

If policymakers can fill in the remaining holes on macro policy and manage to thread the needle between continued virus control and a gradual reopening of the economy, the level of GDP should begin to move higher in May/June, according to Goldman's chief economist Jan Hatzius. Will the recovery look V-shaped or U-shaped? 

According to Bank of America, there is no chance of a V-shaped recovery. For Goldman, its forecast for US growth shows -11% in Q2, -8% in Q3, and -5% in Q4, which qualifies as U-shaped. On a quarter-on-quarter annualized basis, however, this same forecast shows -34% in Q2, +19% in Q3, and +12% in Q4, which looks rather V-shaped. 

Thus, Goldman's forecast is one in which the economy recovers only gradually from the virus but nevertheless shows sequential growth rates in H2 that are unprecedented in postwar history: this will allow the bank to cover all bases, and to tell its clients it is bearish one day, as it was for much of the past months, and then to U-turn unexpectedly, and declare - as it did today - that it is now bullish and that the bottom of the market is in (even as Goldman itself had a bit of fun at its own absurd report).

No way.. in capitalism our ‘Democracy’ give power to the poor working classes.. Capitalism does not give money to trumpists & much less to the  Bloomberg’ mafia.. And  Bloomberg  did not corrupt elections, the poor working classes di it. They stolen the money from the ‘honest’ gay Bloom and  gave it to Biden.  We have ‘honest Demo’ with them. Hard to believe it, but it is the official true, and ‘official true’ must be trusted. Otherwise the Furer can be upset.  LONG LIVE DEMOCRATIC FASCISM! .. the real capitalist socialism.
