Es handelt sich um eine über 80j. Japanerin, die NICHT auf dem Viren-verseuchten Kreuzfahrtschiff Diamond Princess war. Auf dem Schiff stieg der Zahl der Inzifierten um 44 auf 219.
In Tokio hat sich zudem ein Taxifahrer infiziert, der eine Chinesin als Fahrgast hatte.
Die IEA rechnet 2020 (vor allem im 1. Quartal) mit weltweit schwächerer Ölnachfrage - und entsprechend schwächerer Weltwirtschaft.

First Japanese death from coronavirus reported and victim was not from cruise ship
Japan has recorded its first death from the novel coronavirus, the country's health minister Katsunobu Kato said Thursday evening local time.

In Tokio hat sich außerdem ein japanischer Taxifahrer mit dem Corona-Virus infiziert, der zuvor eine Chinesin als Fahrgast hatte.
Taxi driver in Japan tests positive for coronavirus
A taxi driver in the Japanese capital Tokyo has tested positive for the novel coronavirus, Japanese state broadcaster NHK reported on Thursday.
According to NHK, the taxi driver said he had driven one customer that appeared to be Chinese. Japan's health ministry is currently investigating how the taxi driver was infected.
Japan now has a total of 248 confirmed cases of the coronavirus, including 219 cases from the Princess Diamond cruise ship.
-------------------------------------
Die globale Öl-Nachfrage soll wegen der Viren-Epidemie im 1. Quartal 2020 stark einbrechen. Auch bezogen auf das Gesamtjahr 2020 wird mit niedrigerer Nachfrage gerechnet, einhergehend mit deutlichem Abschwächen der Weltwirtschaft.
Ich frage mich, wie Wall Street in diesem Umfeld noch ernsthaft mit neuen ATHs bei Aktien rechnet?

The coronavirus will cause global oil demand to shrink for the first time in a decade
The amount of oil needed to run the global economy will decline sharply in the first quarter of this year as the coronavirus forces factories to close in China, snarls transportation and hits supply chains.
Global oil demand in the first three months of 2020 is expected to drop by 435,000 barrels per day compared to a year earlier, according to the International Energy Agency, the first quarterly decline in more than a decade.
The agency also marked down its forecast for oil demand growth for the whole of 2020. It is now expected to increase by just 825,000 barrels per day, the weakest annual pace since 2011.
The IEA said in its monthly oil report that the impact from the coronavirus was difficult to measure at this stage.
"The onset of [the coronavirus] will likely have a large impact on both the world's economy and oil demand," said the agency. "Consequences will vary over time, with the initial economic hit on transportation and services, likely followed by Chinese industry, then exports and the broader economy."...
