Todayâs Top Stories From the Breitbart News Desk
Stocks sold off sharply today as both France and Germany announced they were once again imposing lockdowns in an attempt to slow down the spread of the coronavirus. This will almost certainly throw the largest economies in continental Europe back into contraction. The U.K. may not be far behind as pressure mounts on Boris Johnson to impose a national lockdown amid surging infections.
That would be bad enough to trigger a sell-off. The economies of Europe are major trading partners with the U.S. and significant customers of U.S.-based global corporations that make up the big stock indexes. When Europe gets a respiratory infection, U.S. stocks are bound to cough.
The bigger fear, however, is that this is a preview of what’s to come in the U.S. Infections are rising here, although nowhere near as rapidly as they were in France. But that could change quickly, and pipe dreams that a vaccine will be available in short order are fading fast. The governor of Illinois, J.B. Pritzker, has already ordered the end of indoor dining in Chicago.

“I just think that there’s going to be a call for lockdowns the likes of which we’ve seen in Chicago,” CNBC’s Jim Cramer said. “And I think that the lockdowns without the stimulus equals what we’re seeing."
One of the weirder aspects of the pandemic’s economic effects has been the boom in auto sales. New-car sales are projected to be up 3% in October over last year. Ford’s earnings showed the company blew away expectations.
Prices of new cars are rising because of the demand surge and a still constrained supply due to factory shutdowns last spring. All the more remarkable in light of the fact that millions of Americans have lost jobs this year, not usually a recipe for sales of big-ticket items.
