Covid 19 Market Impact Paradigms April 2020Niraj Singhvi
At the cusp of possibly the most significant market drawdown and economic shock we've seen since the financial crisis, MGP looks at market impact paradigms to assess basal market impact of such events. And while current private equity war chests are well equipped to help alleviate pressures enabled by some rationalization of deal multiples in the wake of current turbulence, it also faces a major risk if these events lead to genuine economic deterioration.
Political Risk Could Undermine the Global Recovery. Review Dun & Bradstreet's research on global trade and the political risks that could impair global economic outlook. Dun & Bradstreet partners with international finance departments, World Bank Governance Indicator publications, and other global economic outlook experts to create comprehensive fiscal world view.
The macroeconomic outlook following the COVID-19 pandemic is gloomy, ranging between 3-10% in GDP decline for 2020. Recovery will depend heavily on how fast consumer confidence, employment and global trade can rebound. As a business leader, understanding how the macro outlook will impact your business is critical – especially if you are exposed to export markets.
In this short webinar, we will present the latest views on both global and Scandinavian macroeconomic outlooks, including scenarios to consider in the short, mid and long term, as well as a practical macro toolkit for evaluating your company’s exposure to key economic factors.

Employment declined in motor vehicles and parts manufacturing due to strike activity. Federal government employment was also down, reflecting a drop in the number of temporary jobs for the 2020 Census.

3. THE COVID CALENDAR
MAY 23, 2020 - WHAT’S HAPPENED SINCE OUR LAST UPDATE?
▸ Key events or actions linked to predicted dates appear to be happening
▸ The warmer weather and unofficial opening of summer - Memorial Day - seems to be driving public space reopening and people outside
▸ “Obamagate” and increased blame being placed on China by the White House appear to be the latest Trump surprises
4. THE COVID CALENDAR
MAY 23, 2020 COVID CALENDAR KEY INSIGHTS
▸ We continue to foresee the USA has, for the most part, entered or will enter Phase 1 of the Opening Up America Again (OUAA) from May
2020, with a fairly swift move to Phase 2 come the beginning of July, and a prolonged but hyped shift into Phase 3 from September.
▸ The stock market has been anticipating this reopening for the past 5-6 weeks, with the overall market recovering 87% of its Covid losses
from its March 23rd levels. But P/E ratios are currently above those of similar 2019 levels and growing still. in spite of more than 1 in 3 S&P
500 companies having withdrawn EPS guidance for 2020. This continues to lead us to feel there possibility for a pullback mid-May to mid-
June prior to Q2 earnings anticipation
▸ Polls continue show Joe Biden leading Donald Trump despite actions taken to directly or indirectly manage the Covid-19 crisis. Given
Trump’s propensity to propel unanticipated actions to the front of his preferred reporting agenda we foresee the first of perhaps three
increasingly impactful ‘Trump Surprises’ coming in June to attempt to control the reopening narrative. “Obamagate” insinuations and
growing to pin blame on China might be the first seeds.
▸ As we are now nearing the 4th month of the Stay-at-Home authorization, while population has now become familiar with, if not overall
accepting, of measures imposed, social implications such as ending of the school year without activities, the change of weather and the
effect of reopening the first businesses and professional sports leagues will bolster the financial pressures of a prolonged shutdown to
shift sentiment from biological to economic priority. The need to commit within June to physical or virtual 2020-21 school year will be a
substantial early indicator.

COVID CALENDAR DIGEST MAY 23: SHANGHAI DISNEYLAND REOPENS
SHANGHAI DISNEYLAND, ONE OF 14 DISNEY THEME PARKS GLOBALLY,
REOPENED MAY 11, MAKING IT THE FIRST DISNEY PARK TO RESUME
OPERATIONS
▸ ACTIONS TAKEN TO REOPEN:
▸ Guests and employees must wear face masks (though Disney princesses and other
characters are exempt from the requirement).
▸ The park has also limited the number of daily visitors to one-third of the usual
80,000 capacity
▸ Guests have to have their temperatures taken before entering and flash their mobile
“health code,” a government-sponsored system showing citizens’ health status
based on big data. Only those who have a “green code,” meaning the person is
healthy, are allowed in.
▸ Some of the park’s hallmark events, such as parades, night fireworks, and theater
performances, have been suspended, in order to avoid too many people gathering.

6. THE COVID CALENDAR
ABOUT THE COVID CALENDAR
▸ Unlike past historical pandemics and economic downturns, the current Covid-19 emergency has
truly overtaken the entire 195 country global community, effectively focusing the full attention of
the world’s intelligentsia and population at large on both isolating themselves for fear of catching
the virus, and working quickly to come up with solutions to end the self-induced pause to everyday
life.
▸ The Covid Calendar is a living forward guidance paper on what plausibly may occur over the
coming months in the USA by aligning various linked effects of the virus and potential and
announced impacts/actions, rather than a specific prediction.
▸ The focus will be on non-medical data and their effects over time, noting there may be certain
exceptions such as a significant surge, quick treatment or perhaps a cure.
▸ The document will be updated every 10-14 days to reflect significant changes to the impact data.
16. THE COVID CALENDAR
COVID-19 OPINION: PUBLIC POLLS - MAY 23, 2020
▸ Voters in swing states are sharply divided along partisan lines over the coronavirus pandemic with just six months to go before Election Day, according to a new CNBC/Change Research poll.
▸ Democrats and Republicans in the key electoral states of Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin disagree over whether there is likely to be a second wave of Covid-19
cases and who is to blame if there is.
▸ In a hypothetical match-up, Trump holds a narrow, 48%-46% lead over Biden among all the battleground voters surveyed, including a 41%-32% edge among independents.
