I’d say we returned to Canada just in time as a week later the world is shutting down to prevent the further spread of the Coronavirus. We are lucky to live in relative isolation here in Garden Bay, but they have just detected the virus on the coast and there are shortages in our grocery stores. Yesterday I applied for a building permit for my plumbing project and later that day they closed the offices to the public.
What is happening in the world is very interesting from many perspectives. The reaction of the stock market has, and will continue to affect me personally. The market has been extremely volatile and some days I buy and sell up to three times in one day. All that trading yields significant profits yet they are buried in the large paper losses that I have incurred along the way. When the market recovers from this virus I will feel pretty smug.
Until then it helps greatly to be safe and sound at home.
