Hi all, as per the title.

I don't have access to options, but I can buy ETFs, and more importantly, inverse ETFs.

If I bought a week ago, I would have made 25% returns.

My suspicion is that this virus is a doomsday bio-weapon that will kill many, many people, and will spread (based on the PRC spread) throughout the US and the rest of the world over a period of about a month or two. There will be no vaccine. I think a huge crash is coming.

What are the best inverse ETFs to buy, that aren't already priced in?

If I had the ability to, I'd be using options and all the tools the strategies they offer. Unfortunately, I'm Australian, and Australians charge an arm and a leg to do anything financial, so unless you've got a few hundred k to play with, it doesn't really work out after fees, I'm trading US stocks/etfs only because there are virtually zero fees.

I've done a fair bit of research regarding the wu flu, and it doesn't look good.

I know that inverse ETFs for energy are up, for a lot of reasons, including much less travel, and trade from China grounding to a halt. But that's now "priced in". I'm betting on a massive quarantine, and everything not food related shutting down, like what China has done.

Edit: the main thing I cannot ignore is that PRC China has sacrificed its GDP over this and shutdown everything. PRC China doesn't give a fuck about a few dead people. If the CCP is going all out, it must be pretty fucking horrible. As in it could trigger a revolution or war, horrible.
