Firstly, what I decide to show or not show do not require your concurrence.
Hahaha, what a cop out. You make claims, someone asks you to demonstrate your reason to support your claims, and your response is you don't need to? LOL You should be on Trump's cabinet! "What's your evidence for your claim?" "You know, it; I know it; everybody knows it! I don't need to show you anything!"
Secondly, which part of my earlier message to you that you do not understand? Thirdly, what you think of me is inconsequential as far as I am concern .
You make a lot of posts here for a guy who thinks his audience's opinions of him are "inconsequential." Sounds like someone who gets all dressed up to go to a party and ends the night with, "You all don't like me? I didn't like any of you anyway! I don't need anybody to like me!" LOL Defense mechanism?

Well it's going to hit the economy pretty bad I am afraid.
I hear that the central bank is going to inject some money to banks to create fluidly but both supply and demand had plummeted with many manufacturing facilities remain closed with no date in sight when it will re-open that had been directly hit by the virus.

That is clearly not true There are a few sites out there providing timely updates on the total number of infection but there is a timing and a time lag in their updates. The important numbers are the ones coming from the Hubei province which is only updated,once a day and there is a time lag in updates by those sites. You will notice that there is a big jump in the numbers but only when the daily number from Hubei province is updated by those sites. I personally go to the source and that is the Hubei government site which provides the update. The infection is not slowing and in fact is doubling every three days. Other cities in the Hubei province are starting to look like Wuhan 10 days ago. The number of people in Hubei that is under medical observation but not confirmed has exceeded 58,000 of which 10,000 of that number were added just a day ago.

Here are the numbers.

Looking at the confirmed cases for Hubei, the infection rate is definitely going down. That doesn't necessarily mean that the number of new confirmed cases is going down but it is showing signs of plateauing in the last 3 days.

indeed, the Chinese economy will be devastated this year, remember that ridiculous article from the SCMP that said economic "slowdown" will force China to rethink it's military spending? most of us (including me) dismised it because the Chinese economy was performing quite good, but now? I wouldn't be surprised at all if some military projects & procurment programs will be delayed.

What is the meaning of the word, "devastated?" Gimme some numbers cus I don't know what you mean. Is 5% Q1 growth "devastated"? Oh the military projects will be delayed... by about a week or 2 as they are extending New Year break time. What kind of delay, in terms of numbers, are you foreseeing?

I'll do it

(I'd post details if my prediction turned out to be true, in short it's based on my assumption the inflection point has been passed recently):

22k (twenty-two thousand) on February 13; error margins of one-thousand cases, and two days

see you then
it's already time to say it's going to be many times more on February 13 (I don't say it only to admit my estimate was embarrassingly low, I say it mainly because there may be one-thousand dead :-(

what's happened Saturday at 8:22 PM
I used something simple to guess the next time-points, and solved for an inflection point (which was there, I mean in my wrong data)

(for the rest

),

but an inflection hasn't been reached even now (February 4)!

now noticed an almost perfect fit:

number of confirmed cases = 10^(-0.00325*DAY^2+0.17919*DAY+2.20562) for DAY from Jan 29 until today (February 4)

it's just an observation, but if this trend holds, it'll be 23878 tomorrow (February 5)
