from a report I am working on: “3 out of 5 Americans (59%) now forced to work from their homes during the coronavirus crisis would prefer to continue to work from home when the pandemic subsides, while the remaining 2 out of 5 workers (41%) would choose to work in a traditional office environment away from home (source: Gallup)” The biggest challenge for returning to "true normalcy" is the actions/mindset of the workforce/population. Questions I ask myself, "Will anyone be comfortable flying with the density that we had before the crisis?" "Will people feel safe returning to the open workspace or will workers insist on high walled cubicles/offices?" (this is especially important to me since I work with a co-working business) "Will anyone, in the near term, attend a movie in a theater or concert in a stadium?" "What will happen to sporting events?" The one thing that social distancing creates is a lower population density. And many of the financial models are based on high density. Something will have to give.

It was a good day. Up by $7.74. Could have been a better close, but I'm sure that many are afraid that there may be some bad news over night. Maybe not.

One thing to remember is that, though it might not feel like it, AAPL was back at $270 on the 13th, a mere 7 trading days ago. Things have been moving a lot, and so far it looks like things might be down a little tomorrow. I'm holding steady, but with speculatively buy a little AAPL or SPY if things drop a few percent. But mainly we're in that strange time, for all, where we know earnings are going to be down, but we don't really know by how much nor for how long. Once those start getting answered, or at least more solid bounds seem logical, then things can steady. We'll get there. But, it's hard to know the path that will be taken.
