We’ve been seeing new hockey stick graphs every day lately and today is no exception. The weekly jobless data just came out from the U.S. and the numbers were even worse than any analysts had guessed.

In total for the last two weeks, that makes nearly 10 million people out of work due to the virus fears. That’s about
