Jimmy Barrett and Shara Fryer take you through the stories that matter on the morning of 03/19/2020, including: The CDC changed their guidelines for nursing homes and long-term care facilities Friday night after President Trump declared a national emergency over the coronavirus outbreak. The guidelines now urge facilities to restrict all visitations except for "certain compassionate care situations, such as end of life situations." What kind of stimulus should Congress pass to rescue the economy? Nearly 80 million jobs in the US economy are at high or moderate risk today, according to analysis in the last week from Moody's Analytics. That's more than half of the 153 million jobs in the economy overall.

A stunning then-and-now view of the economy: The new report on February jobs growth is gangbusters, but the markets in March tell us a very different story. The coronavirus is raising the risk of a global recession. President Trump tours Tennessee tornado damage this hour before heading to the CDC in Atlanta. The CDC trip was briefly in doubt due to a false alarm that someone there might be infected with the coronavirus. And Michigan is the biggest prize as the 2020 Democratic race heads into super Tuesday 2.0. Bernie Sanders won the Michigan primary four years ago, but Joe Biden hopes his work on the big auto industry bailout gives him blue collar credibility. Today's Panel: CNN's Kaitlan Collins, Brittany Shepherd with Yahoo News, Lisa Lerer with The New York Times, and POLITICO's Heather Caygle Also on the program: CNN's Christine Romans, Mark Zandi with Moody's Analytics, and Damian Paletta with The Washington Post

We're circling back to CECL.  There's been some changes to the implementation of the standard that need discussing, but we also wanted to add a fresh perspective on the preparation.  One of the things that came out in this conversation is the quality of the data that will be needed.  Yes, that data may be more expensive, but there's a lot to be said for knowing your loan portfolio's data better than you currently do.  The silver lining to this cloud is that the data we will have to collect will also benefit our marketing efforts. From Raymond James, we have John Toohig.  John Toohig is a Managing Director at Raymond James, a Board Member and President of Raymond James Mortgage Company, Inc and Head of the Whole Loan Group.  John joined Raymond James (formerly Morgan Keegan) in September of 2006. As manager of the Whole Loan group, Mr. Toohig’s primary responsibilities include day-to-day trading of whole loan packages, portfolio analysis, transaction management and the structuring of whole loan, participation and various structured products. Mr. Toohig’s product focus encompasses both seasoned and new production: residential mortgages (both QM and Non-QM), commercial mortgages, consumer lending, scratch and dent loans, and non-performing assets. Prior to joining the Whole Loan group at Raymond James, Mr. Toohig was a part of the firm’s Taxable Banking platform where he was responsible for corporate debt transactions, trust preferred securities, sale leaseback transactions and ABS transactions. Mr. Toohig received his undergraduate degree from the Houghton College and his MBA from the University of Mississippi with a focus in finance and IT. Mr. Toohig has his Series 7, 24 and Series 63 licenses. His community involvement includes currently serving as Member of the Board of Trustees for St. Agnes Academy / St. Dominic School. He is also a former chairman for both the Lafayette and DeSoto county American Cancer Society Relay for Life events and the former president of the Ole Miss MBA Alumni Board. Mr. Toohig resides in Memphis, TN with his wife Sha, and his two daughters, Helen Grace and Cressey, while he works in Raymond James’ east Memphis branch.

He is responsible for providing accounting expertise across solutions, products, and services offered by Moody’s Analytics in the Americas. Robby has 15 years of experience in tax, financial reporting, and fair value measurement with regional banks and Big 4 audit firms.

There is an elephant in the room for community banks and that is the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) that is within several years of implementation. Potentially, it could have an impact to banks' retained earnings but also has an impact on loan pricing and generally how banks view their credit exposure. It's a shift that is coming...that's not being discussed as it needs to be in the community banking world. Robby Holditch with Moody's Analytics stops by to discuss what CECL is and it's potential impact on the community bank.

Adam Ozimek of Moody's Analytics and blogger at Forbes talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about why economists change their minds or don't. Ozimek argues that economists make erratic but steady progress using econometrics and other forms of evidence to understand the impact of public policies such as the minimum wage or government stimulus. Roberts pushes back and discusses the role of ideology, the complexity of where our views come from and the potential for confirmation bias.

The U.S. is awash in inexpensive oil. That's usually been a plus for the economy, because even though energy companies get squeezed, drivers get a break at the pump. Now, that relationship's gotten a bit hairier. Oil producers have slashed jobs and investment, yet consumers haven't picked up the slack you'd expect from more affordable gas. So here's the question: Is cheap oil now bad for the economy? Ryan Sweet, a senior economist at Moody's Analytics, joins Benchmark co-hosts Tori and Dan to discuss.
