Patriot Operation In Full View,The 16 Year Plan Being Reversed, It’s Happening – Episode 2122

• There are essentially two types of distribution centers within the retail supply chain for most chain markets, food stores and supermarkets.  The first type is a third party, or brokered, distribution network.  The second type is a proprietary, company owned, distribution center.  Knowing the type of distribution helps to understand what you can expect.
• If your local retail store is being replenished from a third party distribution center, you can expect greater shortages and longer replenishment times; we will see entire days of empty shelves in these stores.  However, if your local retail store owns their own warehouse and distribution network, the replenishment will be faster.  In times of rapid sales, there is a stark difference.
• These are general guidelines: An average non-perishable distribution center will replenish approximately 60 stores.   Those 60 stores will generally not extend beyond 100 miles from the distribution center.  The typical company owned warehouse will have approximately 20 tractors (the semis) delivering trailers of goods to those sixty stores.
•   The stores closest to the distribution center will be delivered first, usually overnight or very early morning (run #1). The intermediate stores (50 miles) will be delivered second, mid-morning (run #2).  The stores furthest from the distribution center will be delivered third, late afternoon (run #3).
• So if you live close to a distribution center, your best bet is early morning.  If you live in the intermediate zone, late morning to noon.  If you are in the distant zone in the evening.
• Perishable and non perishable products are selling triple normal volume.  This creates a replenishment or recovery cycle that is impossible to keep up with.  The first issue is simply logistics and infrastructure: ie. warehouse (selectors, loaders), and distribution (tractors, trailers, drivers).  The second issue is magnifying the first, totality of volume.
• A hurricane event is typically a 4 or 5 day cycle.  A snow event might be 2 days.  The holiday pattern is roughly a week and all the products are well known.   nd date.

• Club stores (ex. BJ’s, SAM’s, or Costco) can ship bulk paper goods faster because they do not carry a full variety of non-perishable items.  The limited selection in Club stores naturally helps them replenish; they carry less variety.  Meanwhile the typical supermarket distribution center has to make decisions on what specific goods to prioritize. .
• To try and get a handle on this level of volume we will likely see changes in operating hours.  Expect to see stores closing early or limiting the amount of time they are open every day…. the reason is simple: (1) they don’t have the products to sell over their normal business hours; and (2) they need to move more labor into a more compact time-frame to deal with the increases in volume.

Trump uses coronavirus press conference to threaten Fed head for not halting economic slide

• reporter asked Trump a question “You’re always going after the Fed,” . “If you feel so strongly about it, why don’t you dismiss the chairman, or do you think you’re powerless to do so?”
• “No, I think I have the right to do that or the right to remove him as chairman,” said Trump. “He has, so far, made a lot of bad decisions, in my opinion. We had this great and we’ll soon have again because I think you’ll have a tremendous bounce when this is over. I think there’s a pent-up bounce that’s going to be tremendous. You saw that yesterday with the stock market.”
• “I’m not happy with the Fed because I think they are following, not leading, and we should be leading,” continued Trump. “I’m not happy because, if you look at the central banks, other central banks, largely they’re lower than us, their rate. And their equivalent of the Fed rate is lower. In some cases by two points. That’s a lot. In some cases very substantially. And I thought that the Fed would be and should be much more proactive as opposed to following. Our Fed is following.”
• On getting rid of Powell, Trump added, “I’m not doing that. No, I’m not doing that. I have the right to also take him and put him in a regular position and put somebody else in charge. I haven’t made any decisions on that.”
