The New Market

Markets have been pushed aside in order to keep order, workplaces shut down to isolate the proles from one another in an irrational attempt to stop the spread of the Chines Virus. It will still spread but not as quickly as in a pandemic, but in the movement of time we will all be exposed.

Herd immunity will probably take over once the 50% to 60% point of exposure has been reached, this is the normal for virus in the past and will be normal for virus in the future. The Plague or the Black Death, The Plague of Justinian, The Antonine Plague, The Spanish Flu, Aids and the ever present Cholera have all visited humanity previously and they all still hang around in some form and number. 

Firstly we need to get over our panic and understand that this is a situation that is natural, albeit helped by bat eating habits in China, we will see more of these virus in the future, I just hope we do not have to go through the same market resets that we have yet to experience. Nature hates a vacuum so the market will be filled by many other ventures, some good some bad, but the bobble that the market is will not fail, it is the basic of human interaction. 

From our earliest moves as hunter gatherer tribes to modern metropolis, the market has always been there as a standard for the exchange of goods, the exchange of ideas, the exchange of wealth. All we need is for Governments to get out of the way, to get rid of the red tape, to allow the kernel to flower and the markets will be filled with new entities, it is natural.

The new market will be a bit different, it will come with a new feeling of openness after the short period of shut down, the entrepreneurial nature of proles will fill the holes created by Governments and the Chinese Virus, but then I am an eternal optimist. I hope Governments understand the need for untrammelled activity for a short period to encourage all humanity to get back on board. Bureaucrats get out of the way!
