Impact will be huge on domestic economy - regardless of how destructive the virus turns out to be. People not going out and spending, travelling and transacting. Shops, restaurants, bars, all retail and services. I’m still going with a solid 6-handle on the GDP numbers though...
The impact on China’s holiday economy from #CoronavirusOutbreak must be epic. This is a Shanghai to Beijing flight - middle of lunar new year - and I boarded late. Didn’t fill up anymore than this. Never been on a mainland route so empty before #Wuhan
