"The economic data won’t show anything positive for quite a while and markets can’t really give any credible outlook on earnings right now," he told ABC News Wednesday. While the markets may bounce around based on the headlines,"it's unlikely to bottom until we see that peak in new virus cases, so we just don’t know when that will be," he added.
