As you can see its down the virus has killed at least 24 people. And consider this. On friday morning, there were cases in 22 states. Since then, 12 additional states and washington, d. C. , have reported their first cases. And there are now more than 111,000 cases globally. One question, why more americans havent been tested while the director of the national constitute of allergy and Infectious Diseases says it will happen. I believe 1. 1 million tests have already been sent out. By monday, there will be an additional 400,000 and by the end of next week, probably around 4 million. On wall street this morning, stocks fell so quickly when the markets opened. Trading was suspended for 15 minutes. All three of the major indexes lost around 7 in t the first fe minutes driven by fear over the coronavirus and a huge drop overnight in the price of crude oil. They have since recovered slightly. Cbs News Business analyst Jill Schlesinger is here to tell us what is going on. What is going on . We saw a massive drop in the oil markets, and this really goes back a bit because through fridays close, crude oil was already down 30 . We had opec nations meeting to figure out how to curtail their production to keep the price of oil a little bit higher. Those talks broke down over the weekend between saudi arabia and russia. The saudis then decided they were going to cut their prices to their chinese customers by 5 to 7 . Theyre flooding the market with oil right now. Oil prices were down 30 overnight. Now down over 20 . And this is really causing a kind of a contagion to some extent. People worried about understanding what is the impact of this virus on the Global Economy . And we dont we really dont know the answer yet, especially here in the United States. How significant are these stoppages and what causes them . Well, usually what actually happens is that theres some pentup demand or pentup worry and that then starts the selling. Now youre going to hear a lot about program trading. Algorithms, machines that have taken over. Its just a question of peoples fear. Those algorithms are programmed by human beings. So what is actually happened is that since the 1987 crash, we have these breakers that come in. These Circuit Breakers down 7 , a 15minute breather. Down 13 , another 15minute breather. And when we get down by 20 at any time, we just suspend trading simply to take a timeout. Breather this morning helped a little bit. The markets bounced back a tiny bit after that. Are we in a bear market, and are we expected to bounce back . A bear market is defined as a drop of more than 20 from the recent high. The s p 500, the broad market index, reached a high in the middle of february. We were down by 12 through fridays close. Now were down another 5, 6 , 7 . But well see. A classic bear market is not just one day. Its that you stay in it. If the news gets a lot better, and if we find that the u. S. Economy is not so severely impacted, things could bounce back. And could bounce back quickly if the mood shifts in the country. Jill, thanks. The state department is asking americans not to take cruises while the coronavirus outbreak is still a threat.
