Coronavirus Updates: Wall Street Tumbles, Trump Eyeing Disaster Declaration

The stock market had its biggest drop since the Black Monday crash of 1987 as fears of economic fallout from the coronavirus crisis deepened.

The coronavirus is not only causing ill effects on human health, it is also wreaking havoc on the US stock market. Wall Street recorded its the worst day since the 1987 crash.

President Trump once called the coronavirus a “Democrat hoax” but is now eyeing the issue of a disaster declaration to release federal resources to states. Trump himself may have been exposed to COVID-19 when hosting Brazilian officials at Mar-A-Lago.
