The coronavirus pandemic has disrupted everyday life, altered the trajectory of the global economy, and reminded all of us not to be tricked by the thin veneer of civilization. For all of humanity's advanced technology, our best weapon against a fast-moving virus is to simply stay indoors and keep contact with others to a minimum.
While low-tech solutions can be pretty powerful against uncertainty, investors will gradually begin to chip away at the information gaps of the coronavirus pandemic. Can science provide answers and solutions before the end of 2020? How badly has the economy been damaged? How long will the economic recession last?
Partial answers to those questions will begin to emerge in April. That's why investors might want to keep a closer eye on electric utility holding company Xcel Energy (NASDAQ: XEL) and research and development collaborator Twist Bioscience (NASDAQ: TWST).
