What are the chances, given that our skumbags don't give a f*k about anyone but themselves?

“As prospects of quickly finding new work will remain poor for many, some countries should extend unemployment benefit durations to prevent jobseekers from sliding too quickly into much less generous minimum income benefits,” the OECD said.

The organisation described the economic impact of the pandemic as “far worse” than the 2008 financial crisis, noting that government policy “must remain supportive” throughout the crisis to minimise the risk of a “prolonged” slump.

One of the side effects of mass unemployment - predators trying to sell you bullsh!t courses on how to become a day trader.  Swamped with ads on Youtube full of them.  Because desperate, gullible people will believe anything.  :D

The majority of Americans in the largest metro areas felt down, depressed or hopeless last week, according to Bloomberg calculations from a new U.S. Census Household Pulse Survey, which collects data on how people’s lives have been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Big wave of suicides coming?

Unemployment has not surged, as many feared, because large numbers of firms have put employees on the government-backed furlough scheme.

But economists say the full effect on employment will not be felt until the scheme ends in October.

By winter we will have a second general lockdown as well as mass unemployment, dark nights and awful cold weather.

I can't f^cking wait :)

These miserable-looking c&nts seem to be suffering enough already

that photo gave me flashbacks,, 15+ years going into the financial district with the masses of people on the subway. Depressing as f@ck , listening to all the cringy talk like  'implementing strategies', 'low hanging fruit', 'providing excellence'. 

Got  hacked off with it as I thought I might go postal,  went to Asia years ago and never came back . Life is too short. Sun, cheap lifestyle,  beaches and no politically correct BS talk or having to acknowledge the 472 different genders we have now 😄

And yet people flock to London from all over the world.  Even from places like southern Europe.  Things have got to be pretty bad when your kids want to leave sun-drenched countries with gorgeous diets to come and work low-paid jobs in a stinkhole like London.

Hopefully the EU can sort out things like 25%+ youth unemployment.  Why do they need millions of Syrians and Africans to work low-paid jobs if they already have millions of kids milling about doing nothing?

I dunno.  The more I think about the world's problems the less I understand.  I just want to go away and hide.

The think tank and advocacy group that repeatedly takes companies like Google and Facebook to task warned in the report [PDF] that Amazon's retail side has gone far beyond promoting efficient working and has adopted an almost dystopian level of control over its warehouse workers, firing them if they fail to meet targets that are often kept a secret.

Among the practices it highlighted, the report said that workers are told to hit a target rate of packages to process per hour, though they are not told what exactly that target is. "We don't know what the rate is," one pseudonymous worker told the authors. "They change it behind the scenes. You'll know when you get a warning. They don't tell you what rate you have to hit at the beginning."

If they grow close to not meeting a target rate, or miss it, the worker receives an automated message warning them, the report said. Workers who fail to meet hidden targets can also receive a different type of electronic message; one that fires them.

But hey, at least Jeff Bezos is very rich.

However, the government's own spending watchdog the Office for Budget Responsibility estimates that in a worst-case scenario, unemployment could hit four million next year.

Great stuff.  A free and independent Britain, with a crippled economy and millions out of work, will be in an excellent position when negotiating trade with the USA :D  :D:D:D:D

Britain is on course to suffer the biggest increase in redundancies in a generation in the second half of 2020, based on lay-off notifications by employers hit by the coronavirus shock to the economy, a think tank said on Monday.

See?  The liberal left are very selfish people.  I view them as being merely one side of the ruling bourgeoisie.  As long as they can keep their five-figure salaries and keep their 'pets' (BLM), they don't care about massive swathes of people seeing a reduction in their living standards.

Workers need unions now more than ever:

DIRECTION: Top in wave {v}. DETAILS: We are looking for a five wave move into Minute {v}, considering {iii} was near equality of {i}, we could expect an extension in wave {v}. We also just surpassed 0.618 {v} vs. {iii}, with equality being the next target at 72$.   WMT Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge 4Hr Chart, Walmart Inc., (WMT) 4Hr Chart WMT Elliott Wave Technical Analysis FUNCTION: Trend MODE: Impulsive STRUCTURE: Motive POSITION: Wave (iv) of {v}. DIRECTION: Bottom in wave (iv). DETAILS: We see volume increasing on the moves up of wave (iv) which gives us additional confirmation we are in a corrective phase.   This Elliott Wave analysis for Walmart Inc. (WMT), examines the current market structure and potential future movements using Elliott Wave principles. The analysis provides insights from both the daily and 4-hour charts to offer a detailed understanding of WMT's price action and anticipated trends.   * WMT Elliott Wave Technical Analysis – Daily Chart* We are looking for a continuation of the five-wave move into Minute wave {v}. Given that wave {iii} was near the equality of wave {i}, there is an expectation for an extension in wave {v}. The recent surpassing of the 0.618 projection of {v} compared to {iii} suggests that the next target is the equality projection, which is approximately at 72$. This level could act as a significant resistance, and a potential completion point for wave {v}.   * WMT Elliott Wave Technical Analysis – 4Hr Chart* The analysis indicates that wave (iv) is currently unfolding, and there is an increase in volume during upward movements within wave (iv), confirming that we are in a corrective phase. This suggests a consolidation or pullback phase before resuming the final leg up in wave {v}. The end of wave (iv) will set the stage for the last impulse to complete the entire wave {v} structure.   Technical Analyst : Alessio Barretta Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!  
    • European markets are poised for a strong start to the week following France's first-round election results, where Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally party led with 34% of the vote, but with a smaller share than some polls had projected. This outcome lifted the euro to a two-week high and boosted indices futures, particularly the CAC40. However, uncertainty remains about the final outcome and its implications, as both far-right and left-wing parties have pledged significant spending increases despite France's high budget deficit. This week sees the release of the US non-farm payrolls report, and US markets are closed on Thursday for Independence Day. The UK election and the crucial second round of voting in France will also dominate events. 
    • RUSSELL 2000 Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge Day Chart RUSSELL 2000 Elliott Wave Technical Analysis FUNCTION: Trend MODE: Impulsive STRUCTURE: Orange wave 3 POSITION: Navy blue wave 3 DIRECTION NEXT HIGHER DEGREES: Orange wave 3 (started) DETAILS: Orange wave 2 completed between Fibonacci levels 61.80 to 78.60, now orange wave 3 is active. Wave cancel invalid level: 191.19 The Elliott Wave analysis for the Russell 2000 index on the daily chart offers insights into the current market trend and its future movements based on Elliott Wave Theory. This analysis classifies the market function as a trend, indicating a specific directional movement rather than stagnation or sideways motion. The market mode is identified as impulsive, characterized by strong and decisive movements in the primary trend direction. Impulsive waves typically represent the main market direction, followed by corrective waves moving against the trend. The market structure is labeled as orange wave 3. In Elliott Wave Theory, this denotes a powerful and extended wave within the larger trend cycle, representing significant price movements in the trend direction. The position within this structure is navy blue wave 3, indicating the market is in the third wave of a larger trend cycle. The third wave is usually the strongest and longest in the Elliott Wave sequence, suggesting robust market activity. The next higher degree direction is orange wave 3, which has already started. This implies the market is in an impulsive phase, expected to continue moving strongly in the trend direction. Details of the analysis show that orange wave 2 appears completed between Fibonacci levels 61.80 to 78.60. These levels commonly identify potential market reversal points, indicating support and a move into the next impulsive phase. Currently, orange wave 3 is active, suggesting significant upward movement in the market as part of the ongoing trend. A critical aspect is the wave cancellation invalid level set at 191.19. If the market moves below this point, the current wave count is invalidated, necessitating a reassessment of the wave structure. In summary, the Russell 2000 daily chart analysis indicates an impulsive trend phase within orange wave 3, positioned in navy blue wave 3. The market completed orange wave 2 between Fibonacci levels 61.80 to 78.60, and orange wave 3 is now active. The wave cancel invalid level is set at 191.19, crucial for validating the current wave count.   RUSSELL 2000 Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge Weekly Chart RUSSELL 2000 Elliott Wave Technical Analysis FUNCTION: Trend MODE: Impulsive STRUCTURE: Orange wave 3 POSITION: Navy blue wave 3 DIRECTION NEXT HIGHER DEGREES: Orange wave 3 (started) DETAILS: Orange wave 2 completed between Fibonacci levels 61.80 to 78.60, now orange wave 3 is active. Wave cancel invalid level: 191.19 The Elliott Wave analysis for the Russell 2000 index on the weekly chart reveals a clear and strong market trend. The function of the market is identified as a trend, indicating consistent directional movement rather than random or sideways activity. The market mode is impulsive, characterized by strong, directional movements. Impulsive waves typically signify the market's primary direction. The market structure is defined as orange wave 3. In Elliott Wave Theory, this represents a significant and extended movement in the trend direction, indicating strong market momentum. The position within this structure is navy blue wave 3, suggesting the market is in the third wave of a larger trend cycle. The third wave is often the most powerful and longest, signifying robust and sustained market activity. The direction for the next higher degrees is orange wave 3, which has already begun. This implies the market is currently in an impulsive phase, expected to continue its strong upward movement as part of the ongoing trend. Details indicate that orange wave 2 is completed between Fibonacci levels 61.80 to 78.60. These levels commonly identify potential reversal points, suggesting the market has found support and is advancing into the next impulsive phase. Currently, orange wave 3 is active, indicating significant upward movement, expected to drive the market higher and continue the existing trend. A crucial aspect is the wave cancellation invalid level set at 191.19. If the market moves below this point, the current wave structure would be invalidated, necessitating a reassessment of the wave count. In summary, the Russell 2000 weekly chart analysis shows the market in an impulsive trend phase within orange wave 3, positioned in navy blue wave 3. The market completed orange wave 2 between Fibonacci levels 61.80 to 78.60, and orange wave 3 is now in play.
