The media blah blah blah.....love it how the members of the tribe constantly push their agenda in a thread titled "Musclecar prices and the possible recession," ignoring such things as actual experts at the CDC saying one thing and the WH saying another. Hell, my sister works for the NIH and their guy in the big office isn't allowed to say anything official without being cleared by the WH....I mean, really? Is that what we have become? It's effed up.

Do we really have to be subjected to this on Yenko.net?

So with all your years of expertise and wisdom, please give us your opinion on "Musclecar prices and the possible recession." I don't see that in your post Diego.

I offer no expertise or wisdom, but I know when I smell $#!+. Apologies if my post was dissonant for you.

I agree. The winners here are going to write the history and it always happens exactly that way, so if some people see a muscle car as an investment and want to debate how world events can impact that investment then who are we to tell them they cannot have that discussion?

Not at all. But I do know that any discussion of politics is forbidden here at Yenko.net.

Inovio Pharmaceuticals set to trial Covid-19 vaccine in April

Quote:
Inovio Pharmaceuticals has expedited its timeline for the development of a Covid-19 vaccine candidate, INO-4800, with human clinical trials scheduled for April.

The company already had a vaccine candidate in Phase II development for similar coronavirus that leads to the development of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS).

Inovio leveraged its DNA medicines platform to design INO-4800 within three hours of the publication of the novel coronavirus’ genetic sequence.

In January, the company started preclinical testing of the Covid-19 vaccine candidate and obtained funding from the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) to support preclinical and initial clinical development.

Preclinical testing is ongoing, while the company developed and finalised human clinical trial designs. Inovio has generated 3,000 INO-4800 doses for trials conducted in patients across the US, China and South Korea.

I think for those investors that had the foresight to pull their money out of the market 2-3 weeks ago could find some sweet deals on quality musclecars and I told myself 3 weeks ago the market was about to go through a correction but I did not act on it. Now, I am stuck with a 30% loss and have decided to ride it out and may even put additional money in the market since there are some good value's out there. I don't see musclecar prices falling 30% so now they are more expensive to me, forcing a possible purchase to be delayed. Another big factor for me is that my business is tied to the oil industry, so with prices in the $30 a barrel range, income could be cut by 50% or more. This really reduces the cash available to play in the musclecar market and could force the sale of some of my cars.

An even worse pox on those who choose to weaponize a national emergency when this ends - and it will.
I wasn't going to weigh in here, because everyone seems to have become an armchair disease expert and economist on here in the last week, but WOW, WOW... This post....And somebody said there's no politics allowed on yenko.net???? Yeah, right! Holy crap, this reads like a hand-out to all the Junior Interns who got hired at the White House last month.

You don't like your country's media? Then turn on the BBC or the CBC (that's British Broadcasting Co. & Canadian Broadcasting Co. if you're not sure) They speak English, but you'll find that the "news" isn't any less grim and sensational because this is a REAL pandemic with REAL consequences and REAL deaths. To the guys here bashing the media - we get what party you vote for, loud & clear. Don't try and disguise it behind a car comment. Pack it up and take your campaigning somewhere else. This is a MUSCLECAR FORUM not Breitbart.

As to car prices, this will make the slide that's been happening move a little faster. But the good cars will take a much lesser hit, as the Fuller LS6 vert showed. Same as any market downturn, it's a no-brainer.

Now please, somebody lock this thread or start moderating it cuz it's at a B.S. tipping point.

I absolutely disagree with your post Tracker; this is an important topic that needs to be discussed. I appreciate different points of view, and so far, there only seems to be some reasonable disagreement (relatively respectable I thought considering the sensitivity of the subject). Why shut it down? It's up to Steve if he wants to, and I understand if he doesn't want it on here so it doesn't degrade, but I'm a full believer in free speech even if it disagrees with my own views, and you seem to be the only one injecting specific politics into it with that statement. Can we not just remain above the fray and have respectful discussions without getting into ad hominem attacks?
