Pressure is growing on governments and Central Banks to fight off the virus and avoid a steep slump she 7 finance ministers say theyre plotting a powerful and timely response analysts say its a tug of war between hope and fear Central Banks giving hope with promise stimulus astray being the 1st to cut Interest Rates of growth of virus down to a record low of a percent we have now is the latest country to try to give its economy a boost to combat the economic consequences of the disease the government announcing more than a 1000000000 euros in stimulus spending stimulus package includes tax breaks lower fees and an increase in state spending on Infrastructure Projects estimates show that code 19 could wipe out a 6000000000 euros in tourism earnings of vietnam. As one of germanys leading economists clamens 1st about the action countries are taking and if this could be a black swan event a real shock to the system like Lehman Brothers or 911. 00. I think we shouldnt exaggerate this but there is a possibility that this becomes a very severe shock maybe one thats comparable to the other big crisis we dont know this year it all depends on how the epidemic develops but there is a risk that its going to be very about governments that it will be taking the right measures i think that governments and Central Banks are maybe a little slow i believe in taking measures against the spread of the epidemic and then also in taking Economic Policy measures i think its high time that the Central Banks in particular the fed do take measures to calm the markets what sort of measures would you like to see so the fed is best placed to cut Interest Rates maybe also to buy government bonds we need a clear signal to the markets that something is going to have been a government should focus on stabilizing companies that are directly affected by the virus the trouble is this is a supply shop not just a demand also supply shock and thats difficult to address i think one danger is that people start to think oh my Business Partners who wont be able to pay me for instance and then stop transactions although its unnecessary so this collapse of confidence needs to be avoided thats why i would say governments should direct targets to companies affected by the virus meaning affected by disruptions in the supply chain for instance.

Well i agree and disagree i agree that the governments so far have been too slow in preventing the break in the for example the German Government listening to Health OfficialsHealth Experts debate this point they didnt close kindergartens for example which would have been a good way to prevent an outbreak thats probably coming through children spreading the disease among others people of course as well or checking people entering germany through airports with a fever i disagree in the terms of say the fed having to lower Interest Rates to support the markets the markets were up at record highs before this broke out because of low Interest Rates and part of the correction was due to those record highs in felt a little bit exuberant and only just one little of the question is anyone actually shaking hands there down there on the floor.
