Resellers. If you saw news of people reselling alcohol, face masks, tissues, etc. when the lockdown quarantine period started, you'd see them selling such stuff for unimaginable prices. It's really disappointing how people could still take advantage of others during a pandemic period. Well, they are just one of the more obvious winners during the Covid, but not the biggest one.

Medical supplies are also one type of winners, though tbh, I'd rather them not be winning like this since this just proves that the world is pretty much in a pickle. Can't really judge other countries since their schemes run pretty deep. Still, if ever someone develops a vaccine, they'd probably become the biggest winner in all of this. Ofc, granted that this vaccine is a legit one that works. Though after a few years, the rewards for the creation of said vaccine may depreciate, though it still varies depending on how the virus actually spreads from now on.

our government prohibit individuals from buying a lot of alcohol bottles, one person can only buy 2 bottles. its not surprising individual also find this an opportunity. facebook sellers of alcohols and face masks are flooding and some even have a brand of their own named "ALCOVID" Grin

thats a winner.

PPE's are the hardest to find, its only for hte front liners but some people are looking to buy also. these are more expensive which some sellers were caught by authorities.

I think no one has really won in this disaster. But people who have never stopped investing, even in this financial crisis will have the laugh as the market recovers very soon. This year has been worst emotionally, economically and socially. Hopefully it recovers asap and be the world of the pre-corona period!

For sure medical industry especially pharmaceutical companies are making high sales during this pandemic but there are still companies that are gaining more sales than before especially those e-commerce retailers like Amazon, Lazada, Alibaba and many more.

The global economy experiencing recession but it is now recovering and to remind everyone that there is opportunities on every crisis. For sure that there are also companies that are been founded because of this pandemic.

The answer is obvious: Guyana.

With most of the world expecting a contraction in 2020 or at best very marginal growth, they are coming off a huge crude oil discovery made late last year. They just officially became an oil producing nation and are expecting something like 50% growth this year.

Vietnam is looking strong, probably the best in Asia. They actually grew in Q2 despite the pandemic. They are also well positioned to increase their market share of exports as manufacturers look to move production outside of China.

The real stock market investors I guess. One who sold their stocks before the pandemic situation was announced are the real big winner of 2020 aka covid 19 period.We all knows that how much value of stocks were crashed due to the issue and also there is a conspiracy says this covid 19 is just financial reset of oversized economy all over the world.

There are businesses whose products and/or services are suddenly in very high demand during the pandemic. Medical equipment is one. The demand is global.

In a local setup, delivery services are really on high demand as people are asked to stay at home.

In a way, those workers who are not allowed to work while still receiving full salaries are also big winners. Some friends are actually binging on movies and series and food at home while getting full wages.

As to the virus being man-made to destabilize the world economy, I find silly.

We are aware that most of the countries economy has gone for a toss and many are at the brink of collapse but who has been the biggest winner of this pandemic? is it corporate medical industry who are charging abnormous fee for treatment or else a particular regime who is silently buying stakes of major groups at lower price during this situation? Do you think this was a man-made virus to destabilize the world's economy and buy huge shares so that a vaccinations can be rolled out once the enough damage is made ?

It's too early to say who are the biggest winner because we all know that nations are in the brink of collapse because of the effect of Covid-19.

I will not touch about the man-made virus theory though. But so far with the way I see it, there are a online boom, all items are now being ordered online, even my niece and nephews age 18 and below become a self made entrepreneur in this pandemic by offering various items to sell online.

Clearly the biggest winners are conspiratards of all sorts. This pandemic produced a never-ending stream of stupid shit and a matching number of idiots ready to believe anything. Including idiots buying shares of bankrupt companies. SMH.

I find that idea barking. Even if you tested it on a few people there would be no way of telling how effective it would be applied to a whole planet. You might be rubbing your hands at your financial manoeuvres and wake up to find you killed billions.

Go let off an EMP on Wall St instead.

Let's get the virus out of the way before declaring who won and who didn't. We don't know whether it's on its way out or warming up to hammer us harder than ever. Countries and industries that so far have gotten off lightly may get a rude surprise.

It is weird that the UK appear to be trying to sell 2 bullion doses of the vaccine already (at least they have contracts to produce that amount from part public and part private schemes)... I think Germany and other European countries studying the virus have similar schemes. I doubt anyone would want a vaccine from China, that'd be a last resort.

I believe the WHO are not playing a vital about the COVID 19 vaccine because are not passing good information about it to the masses.
With that been said, it been awhile since follow the update news about the vaccine and the last i check the UK vaccine is yet to be endorse by WHO while the China seems to be keeping information about their vaccine.

The UK are still in a testing phase so I'd see no reason for them to pass information about the 3 vaccines being produced until they have one that works effectively...

I don't know how the who works but would cdc europa not be better suited to advise and collaborate information on vaccines within the EU (and probably the USA based on the trump administration's recent rejection of the WHO - unless that was over dramatised)...

We cant tell! I had already read enough when it comes to conspiracies about this Covid thing but no one can still able to prove out on where it really originated neither its man-made or just natural existence.

When it comes to industries that really show up or do make big money on this pandemic situation is indeed into the field of medicine since this is a health concern then its no question that they are the ones

who do make out money and how much more to those people who do able to create the vaccine? In mention of stocks then you know that there are people will really consider on buying back.

I think the better way to look at it is how to fast track the development of vaccine for this virus rather than looking for more conspiracy theories behind it. Right now, we need the potent medicines and the vaccine, not the rumours surrounding it. There's no biggest winner here, all are suffering from this pandemic. So I guess, we need to stop thinking about who wins after this pandemic is over.

There's a different rumored on it but once there's no solid evidence that proving this virus was man-made. Even people thinking that it is a biological weapon, but as what I'd like said, still rumored and no one knows about it as long as it is originated from the country of China. Until now, this is one of the biggest puzzles from experts. Other people say it's coming from the bats. So, there's no vaccine found yet, do you think the damage has not enough to be made the vaccine out?

Based on this article, those sectors were blooming amid the pandemic situation.

Medical supplies
Delivery cargo firms
Big retail markets
Online Games and book companies
Online shopping platforms

This comes up in my mind that the winner most common is those who are in a business that in demand during the pandemic.

At first the biggest winners was China obviously, because they produced products that is highly important during this pandemic but because of trade war, failed testing kit and the anti-china products, they seems like they failed to manipulate the whole market. Rich countries are making way to make their own vaccine, and other big pharmaceutical companies simply because they don’t want to depend on Chinese vaccine and I think the first country to make a real vaccine will become the over all winner. Well, If you don’t have the virus then you can still consider yourself as the Biggest winner, life is more important than money. Cheesy

Things like the pandemic dont just happen out of nowhere definitely a man-made virus but it may not be an intentional created virus and if you remember a Doctor Wuhan that died of the same virus have make an announcement about this virus but no one believe him, definitely some people also aware of the virus but decide not to talk about it.

"Only when the tide goes out do you discover who's been swimming naked"

As Warren Buffett would say, we will see who will come out on top of all that. Nation-wise, it is hard to tell (read, too early as it will take years for the effects to fully develop and clearly reveal themselves). Industry-wise, information technologies and anything related seem to be the primary benefactors of the virus. Yep, that sounds a little ambiguous, and that's the irony of it (like going viral ain't what it used to be)

In this two according to your question. I believe that people buying stakes now at cheaper rate are those that will benefit greatly. The reason is that investment makes someone more richer than what can be benefited instantly like the medical industry in treatment and drugs given in sales for treatment of covid-19. As of investment in stakes, it is future growth because they can increase beyond estimation for the investor.

With thousands of front line workers dead worldwide due to corona virus, is there any win for the medical industry, they have prolly lost the most during this pandemic. I have also not heard of hospitals charging covid-19 patients high (or any) fees for treatment.

Stocks, bitcoin and so many other assets fell when the virus shed it's milk teeth, but they have recovered since then, prolly people who had enough cash for their needs bought back then and made profits thereafter, but AFAIK, more people panicked and were rather selling off.

Why would they do so when they are also not immune to the virus and can contract it and also die.
