US President Donald Trump listened to top U.S. health expert Dr Anthony Fauci when he recommended that mitigation efforts be taken to stop the spread of the coronavirus. However, Trump is determined to open the economy at the earliest opportunity.

In the Presser taking place, Trump has stated, "we're very close to completing a plan to open our country, hopefully even ahead of schedule."

Fauci made the comments after saying in a separate interview that lives could have been saved if the country had shut down sooner during the novel coronavirus outbreak.

Earlier, Trump retweeted a call to fire Fauci after that interview, but Reuters reports that the "White House said on Monday Trump did not intend to part ways with the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases."

Market implications
Markets will ride the prospects of the economy being cranked back into life, although the risk of contagion is going to be a challenge for the bulls and there could easily be setbacks along the way to anything proposed by Trump depending on the ebbs and flows of contagion and death tolls.
