Another "Beat" On The Jobless Claims Report -- Notes From All Over, Part 2 -- February 13, 2020

Mood: great mood today. I've never watched so much cable network news -- MSNBC is particularly fascinating. Laura Ingraham on Fox News late last night, particularly "fun." We all can't wait for AG Barr to testify.

Jobless report, link here:
  • prior: 202K
  • revised: 203K
  • consensus: 211K
  • actual: 205K  
Coronavirus: lots of jobs coming back to the US.

Coronavirus: Japan says it won't affect summer Olympics. Two minutes later -- report that first coronavirus-associated death in Japan reported. That headline about the summer Olympics? Never mind.

Reminder: dividend announcements here.

No animals were harmed during this operation, to the best of my knowledge.

Elon Musk's "Boring Company" was not consulted to the best of my knowledge during this operation.
