- bjourne 7y agoMaybe because global stock markets are dumb? :)
- cafard 7y agoBought any N-95 masks lately?
- zimpenfish 7y agoHaving just been to the supermarket[1] across the road and seen stripped-bare aisles for pasta, rice, etc., yeah, there's some kind of panic. [1] UK
- SamReidHughes 7y agoThat's preparedness. Buyers won't have to go out and get food when the pandemic hits its peak.
- chippy 7y agoThat is "panic buying" but its done not by panicking people. If you camp out in the supermarket you may notice that people appear as they always do, even if they are buying stuff because other people are buying stuff.
