Review

Although there had been some renewed fears on the spread of COVID-19, particularly as the cases of international infected continue to grow, it is only a minor factor to the selloffs that occurred for the week. The economy has been performing positively for over ten years and continues to do so as more positive reports come in, as indicated by the mid-week stock price rise. Despite the international impact the pandemic has accrued to global trade, the United States has stayed relatively isolated from its impact despite the dozen or so reported cases. While there may be some impending dips from mixed investor sentiment, the market will eventually reach new records so long as the economic data remains positive.
