    Last week, we talked about the markets behaving like a roller-coaster ride at an amusement park.

    This week, markets went into an even deeper plunge as the media and news outlets piled on increasingly bad news on Covid-19.

    Things are looking increasingly bleak with. many countries struggling to contain the coronavirus.

    The US has caught the outbreak, Italy was forced to lockdown 16 million people, and even celebrities such as Tom Hanks have reportedly been infected.

    Is no one safe anymore?

    Predictably, stock markets around the world suffered yet another spasm of selling.
