Surprisingly strong March manufacturing numbers out of China (China numbers, I know). PMI had dropped to 35 in Feb came back to 53. The kind of recovery US can hope for this summer. [Reply]

China would tell everyone they have full employment yet 80% of the workers would be prison labor. That's how Commies work. :-) [Reply]

Goldman Sachs is still predicting a "V-shape" recovery, however, meaning the steep drop-off will lead to a bigger bounce of 19 percent in the third quarter.
"Our estimates imply that a bit more than half of the near-term output decline is made up by yearend and that real GDP falls 6.2% in 2020 on an annual-average basis (vs. 3.7% in our previous forecast)," the forecast said
Goldman Sachs new projections for Q2 drop from -24% GDP to -34%. Somehow they still have us shooting right back up with +19% Q3 GDP. I get we had a lot of stimulus but it's hard to imagine bouncing back to that level. I'd have been happy if we bounced back to flat growth. [Reply]
Oh. I don't use that one, so I can't help you there. But I bet it's got one, usually under "research" or some such header. They won't usually filter on things like "blue chip", but in my various accounts I can filter for things like revenue and dividend paid and a million other things like eps growth, p/e, book value, and other stuff.
