Friday’s Factors and Events
the fears of a resurgence of coronavirus are spooking investors. In fact, China and Germany have taken the initiative to reimpose some lockdown measures in areas where the emergence of new cases are being observed. Meanwhile, states like Florida, Carolinas, Texas and Arizona are seeing increasing number of hospitalizations every day and are apprehending widespread community transmission (per a CNN report). Also, the new model suggests that Florida has “all the markings of the next large epicenter” of the coronavirus outbreak, per a CNN report. The fears worsened when the United States reported more than 25,500 new coronavirus cases and a death toll of around 755 on Jun 17.
