Yes. 0.00% no longer seems impossible to me! Its interesting to click on the link and then to click on Max. It takes you back as far as 4/1/1962 and clearly shows the history being made daily by these low rates.....Something unprecedented appears to be occurring.

ORK. I don't like this at all. And Lombardy (north Italy) is in lockdown, like Wuhan is/was. I saw a headline that said "Italy's stocks fail to trade." But there was no follow-up. Their bourse is in Milan, I understand. But then it was reported that Milan was way down, by almost -10%. Again, I say: ORK!
