The operative word is 'panic' selling. 'Panic' anything has no
relavence to facts. You correctly point our your
district may be up to speed. Recently, a water supply facility failed their computers in a simulation and found out raw sewage ended up in the water supply as a result. I suspect similar parallel efforts to
call suppliers in China, Asia, South America, Mexico, and Russia
will be slightly less sound. All major market tragedies are fueled
by unsophisticated panic. Enough hype in the market place (which already
has occurred ) will plant the seed that 'should' just one major
supplier fail causing just one major corporation economic distress, every fly by night advisor will emerge from the wood work and tell people to hoard just to be "safe". Nothing based in reality can stop that, and once a world wide rumor begins it is difficult to stop.

By the way, I have never been a 'victim' of the press.
I make my own mistakes in judgement all by myself.
