Was hoping the down markets, oil prices, would help with the gas prices here. Instead they are surging upward. Thanks virus. Went up ~ 0.35/gallon overnight.

 

Wow. Without trying to start some whole debate/conversation about fuel prices in Canada vs. the US, what are gas prices there? 

 

Lowest price in Salem right now is about $2.50 a gallon.

As of now our trip to NOLA is still on, but I am starting to wonder if the Jazz Festival will be canceled. Would just be more time to explore the area though, we will probably go either way.

Now Comic-Con is now delayed, and Seattle Humane is shutting down for a week. Shits getting real!

Guess we just need to take a timeout....all systems will be full ahead as time works it’s magic.  The rat race will surge ahead!!

Everything should shut down for the rest of the month. People should just become shut-ins...The economy is going to take a huge hit anyway, might as well just stop this thing in its tracks and then get on with life afterwards. Otherwise it’s just going to get worse and linger way longer with many more deaths. Just shut down the northwest until April.

1.41/ litre. Which is roughly 5.35/ gallon I think.

 

I would assume most things are a little more expensive on an island because of transport costs.

It’s a little more over here generally. Still cheaper than Vancouver, they are the highest in the country for gas, but the island Is more expensive than the rest of BC usually

I totally agree. It is going to HAMMER the travel/tourism sector. I'm hoping to scoop up some cheap flights for my kids coming out here this summer.

 

How do you think it will impact real estate? I am probably about 1-2 years away from being in a position to pull the trigger on an investment property, and am really envious of where rates are heading right now.

Yeah, I think it could actually be a net positive for real estate, between rates continuing to drop and other investments headed south.

Probably a good time to buy around fall of 2020. Rates will be suppressed and I could even see home prices slightly drop.

I've noticed a lot of the sites will leave up really old stories. Probably as click bait or whatever.

Sun feels warm today. Sunny and just shy of 50 after a morning low of 31F. I think there’s a decent chance we’ll see a coating of snow here tomorrow morning

We’ve had drizzle and light rain all day! Wish we could have had a sun break.

I've noticed a lot of the sites will leave up really old stories. Probably as click bait or whatever. 

In 2008, someone at an investment firm was googling bankruptcy stories, as of course their company would want to know about any company going under.  He found a 6 year old news story about United Airlines going bankrupt, and he did not realize that it was 6 years old.  So this old story went into their online newsletter that was published through Bloomberg.

 

As a result, United Airlines stock fell 75% that day until someone realized it was an old story.  But it took a little while, as when he searched for it, Google put the current 2008 date on it, since that is when the search engine found it.  So everyone thought it was current.
