While I don’t wish a bad economic downturn or a worldwide epidemic I do know that it presents a fantastic opportunity to get things at cheaper prices. The retirement of my wife and earned the most money during the down periods of 2007 to 2012. If I believe in something I keep buying on the up and the down. I often double up on the down. The key is knowing if its a point in time or a falling knife. My grandfather told me that I need to pay off my bills during the good times and buy things on credit during the bad. My Dad and I did exactly that in 2008. We bought land, greenhouses and vacation homes during the crash. Homes in Florida that were 700K went all the down to $150K. Those same homes are almost back up to the $700K range again.
Where I’m going with this is the Corona virus. There is no doubt in my mind that commerce is going to be disrupted around the world. It will get worse. Stocks are going down. Many of them will go down a significant amount. Apple will go down because of manufacturing slowdowns. But history tells you that it won’t stay that way. The company hasn’t changed its business model. It will present an opportunity to buy Apple stock at a discount.
To me a real economic downturn effects two important things. The price of transportation, food and housing. During an economic downturn housing prices usually go down. I think the future of gas prices stay low. More people using electric cars only helps. And the lack of vehicle use in China will actually make gas prices drop. If you remember in 2007 gas was $5 or more. A literal tax on every worker in America. $50 a week more was a huge impact on many families. The price of gas effects the disposable income of the working class. Cheap gas is good. So the corona virus is good in that aspect. And food. Food is local. Conceivably if Corona got into Mexico, Costa Rica, and South America than many of our fruits and vegetables could be effected but otherwise most of our food is produced somewhat locally and an overseas epidemic won’t effect that either.
So while I see Corona as a big deal and nobody wants to see fellow humans die or suffer. It does present an opportunity to get investments at a better rate. We all know many great domains are in the hands of people from China. That market could suffer. They could need to liquidate if things get bad enough. Again, an opportunity. All good investors make money on volatility and we’re definitely going to see a lot of volatility over the next few months
