This is worse than 2008.
They can throw trillions at the stock market and the underlying issues of no one spending in the economy will still destroy the underlying economy.
The bull argument is Government stimulus spending yet no private builder China/whatever will build for sometime as the property market has died for Tourist areas and Commercial which will pull down residential prices everywhere.
We're not even a month into this here and coastal areas of North Wales are down 65% at auction and rents are down 30% and will fall another 50% because everyone with holiday flats will dump them on the rental market.
No Government is going to stop cinemas, restaurants, bars, retail, airlines, transport, tourist and commercial property dying.
By the time all of these businesses have gone bust we'll have so much spare capacity no one will build for 5 years.
