What do billionaires think about the coronavirus?

Warren Buffet: still optimistic
The attitude of a famous billionaire towards the long-term outlook for the stock market has not changed. Mr. Buffet acknowledges the risks of coronavirus, calling it “scary stuff”. During the interview, he mentioned that the spreading of the virus may be negative for the portfolio of Berkshire Hathaway (which is under control of Warren Buffet). Despite that fact, he sees the US economy strong enough and remains bullish on stocks. Among his favorite investments, he named Apple, JPM and Bank of America. He paid special attention to the stocks of central banks.
Warren Buffet recommends not buying or selling stocks based on the day’s headlines. “The real question is: ‘Has the 10-year or 20-year outlook for American businesses changed in the last 24 or 48 hours?”, - he says.

The American hedge fund manager expresses confidence that people will manage to find a way to cure the virus and the stock market will get better in June. At the same time, he admitted that he lost a lot of money this week.
