The US dollar is in demand worldwide, with the dollar index jumping to its highest level since January 2017. The Federal government is injecting money into the US economy, while 30 million people could be unemployed as a result of layoffs or reductions in work hours. Plus, some firms, like Tesla and Ford, are stepping up to fill in the gaps of the epidemic, manufacturing medical necessities like ventilators. Finally, with quarantines and social distancing now becoming the norm, there are concerns about the internet potentially crashing, with colleges, high schools and elementary schools moving classes online and millions of people using telecommuting software to work from home.
