    ඕකනේ උඹලට කියන දේ තේරෙන්නේ නෑනේ.

    මම කියන්නේ නෑ හැම දේම මාසෙන් තිබ්බා වගේ වෙයි කියල, හැබැයි knee jerk reactions වලින් වෙන්නේ ලෝන්ග් ටර්ම් පාඩුවක්. ලෝකේ වෙළඳම නවතින්නේ නෑ. ගල් යුගේ වගේ හැම මිනිහම තමන්ට ඕනේ හැම දේම හදා ගන්නෙත් නෑ.

    ගොවිතැනම ගනින්කෝ, හරි ලෝකේ විනාස වෙලා ලංකාව තනි වෙනවා. ඉම්පෝට් එක්ස්පෝට් මොකුත්ම නෑ. එත් බං හැම එකාම වවල හරියන්නේ නෑනේ? දැන් වගේ ගොවියෝ ඒවා කරයි මහා පරිමානෙන්. නැතුව හැම එකාම ගෙදර කන දේවල් ඔක්කොම වවන්නේ නැනේ?

    සිටුවේෂන් දෙකක් ගමු

    1) උඹ ඔක්කොම අත ඇරලා වවන්න ගන්නවා, අවුරුද්දක් කියමු, අවුරුද්දකින් උඹේ ජොබ් එක ආපහු කරන්න තත්වයක් ආවම උඹ ගොවියෙක්. උඹ නොදන්න ෆීල්ඩ් එකක හිර වෙලා.

    2) උඹ දැන් ඉන්න ෆීල්ඩ් එකේම ඉන්නවා, අදායම 25%. උඹේ emergency funds වලින් ඇදගෙන යනවා. ආපහු දේවල් සාමාන්‍ය වෙච්ච දවසක උඹ රෙඩි.

    කෝකද වඩා හොඳ?




    අඩු ගානට හරි තමන් දන්නා ෆීල්ඩ් එක අල්ලන් ඉන්න එක වටිනවා එළවලු වවන්න යනවට වඩා :yes::yes::yes:




    1) oka atha arala wawanna epa, uba e side ekata invest karanawa witarai :)
    2) Emergency fund ekak tiyenna oni aniwa, habai loku crisis ekakadi salli wala watinakama nathi wenawa. emergency fund eka patta watinawa eka para job eka nati unoth wage.

    At this very a lot of companies have started salary cuts.



    Some of companies have performed very well in first quarter of the year and they expect a massive loss in this year


    In Sri Lanka context apart from supermarkets, ISPs have survived :D

    I'm in the IT industry and I think e-commerce will be the trend after this shit is over. Most of them are now getting used to online purchasing

    What will be some unexpected outcomes of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic?


    Some thoughts:

    # The fallacy that online shopping will someday be the primary means of commerce has been disproven - Amazon, the current online leviathan, has now suspended its Amazon Pantry service which was supposed to rival brick and mortar retailers. Additionally,, it Whole Foods and Fresh local grocery shopping services are so overwhelmed that neither are scheduling new delivery dates for the foreseeable future. Basically, COVID-19 was one of the first major test of online retailers and they have failed it miserably. This is going to be a major setback until (or if) they can overcome it.

    # Donald Trump already tottering empire is going to slide into yet another of his many bankruptcies - Besides the decline in business due to his controversial policies and practices, Trump's businesses were always on life support anyway as they depended upon travel, disposable income, and the airlines being active. Since they cannot count on those things now, and since they were servicing major interest loads on their debt, anything other than a brief shutdown is going to result in their having to seek financial protection in the courts. That's another reason why his lackluster response to this crisis is so puzzling as he knows that the economy faltering is not beneficial to his companies in any manner.

    # Iran is going to become more dangerous - Most of the nation's current leadership is in the age range where the pandemic has been claiming the most lives. If a sizable number of those people grow ill or die, they are going to be replaced by less pragmatic individuals who will blame sanctions for much of their nation's suffering and will probably lash out as a result.

    # The world illegal drug trade, as well as the trafficking in human beings, are going to be vectors for the pandemic and may result in new outbreaks later when the main event itself has passed - Basically the trades in drugs and human beings are unregulated in normal times, and these times aren't normal. No one is testing drug traffickers who cross borders; nor is the prevention of exploitable migrants from nations with substandard health care being addressed. The two are likely going to create reservoirs of contagion which are going to be problems for decades to come.

    # Businesses which were already troubled are going to be finished by the pandemic - Say goodbye to Applebees, Macy's, JCPenny's, a number of smaller retailers and restaurant chains, and at least one of the major movie theater chains. Additionally, small local businesses which are barely surviving now are going to be finished by the shutdown, and by the fact when things taper off their potential customers won't have disposable income to spend at them. The business landscape is going to be radically different by the end of 2020 than it is today.

    # A number of less financially successful colleges and universities are going to close down - The end of the education boom sparked by the 2007-8 economic crisis was beginning to taper anyway and the prospect of missing 2-3 semesters of enrollments is going to cripple many of the institutions already experiencing financial difficulties. Expect a number of weaker ones to close later in 2020, while others will do so in 2021 and 2022.

    COVID-19 is reshaping our internet habits

    bdyYT0U.png


    The coronavirus pandemic is changing how we work, study, digest news, and entertain ourselves. We’ve put together a quick breakdown of the biggest changes by vertical:

    App store spend is up: Q1 2020 was the largest-ever quarter in terms of consumer spend on apps, according to data from App Annie. Consumers worldwide spent over $23 billion through app stores.

    Social app usage is exploding: Daily downloads of Houseparty have risen 25x. The video chat app was downloaded over 650,000 times on March 25.

    Collaboration apps are now household names: Worldwide daily downloads of Zoom's mobile app have increased by 14x since February 15. Video conferencing apps saw a record 62 million downloads during a single week in March.

    People are hungry for news: Web traffic to nytimes.com and washingtonpost.com has grown more than 50 percent over the last month, according to SimilarWeb.

    Esports are thriving: Watch hours on Twitch have increased by 23%. Watch hours on YouTube Gaming Live increased by 10.7% and on Facebook Gaming by 3.8%. Twitch surpassed 3 billion hours watched on the platform in Q1 2020.
