“With the benefit of hindsight, [the jobs number] kind of makes sense because we had the Paycheck Protection Program that was basically implemented in April, encouraging small businesses to keep people on their payrolls,” said Yardeni, a longtime Wall Street investment strategist.

He added that, as long as no second wave slams the economy, he sees a V-shaped rebound, at least initially, driving the S&P 500 to record highs over the next couple months. Specifically, he’s looking for the S&P to breach 3,500 sooner rather than later, which is about 300 points higher from here.

2. Not so good for insurance companies, but plenty of new construction jobs, where they'll be too macho

to wear masks, so plenty of work for hospital employees too.

3. No second wave?

Well, that's Peter Pan fantasy land thinking right there. Rah! Rah! Cheer it on.

The way it is looking, the second wave will be the worst thing we have seen in our lifetimes due to the already reckless behaviors and premature openings. Rebound? Let's try, how many rings down into Dante's Inferno are we going to go?

5. They will never admit there would be a second wave.

They hardly admitted that there was a first wave to begin with. Trump and the republicans were downplaying the virus this whole time and never stopped. I am still baffled that we still have 600-1000 deaths a day and we are pretty much declaring that the virus is gone.

I don't believe that we can isolate for more than a month or 2 but we also can't go back to pre-virus days like nothing has happened. We all have to share the responsibility to act differently and more cautiously to prevent the spread of the virus. But this is not happening when half of the people don't believe in the danger of the virus.

My prediction is that we will continue to see 1-2 thousand deaths a day and Trump/republicans will continue to ignore it.
