Financial advisory firm Signum tells clients Senate will flip to Democrats as Biden surges past Trump
CNBC ^ | June 23, 2020 | Brian Schwartz

Financial advisory firm Signum Global Advisors is telling clients that it now believes the U.S. Senate is going to flip blue as presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden continues to surge past President Donald Trump in the polls.

In a note to Signum’s clients, Chairman Charles Myers and senior partner Lew Lukens said that while they were initially convinced Republicans would maintain control of the upper chamber, they have changed their minds and think Democrats are going to take it back.

“As Joe Biden’s lead over Trump in national and battleground polling has widened, several Senate races have become closer. We are changing our call and now predict the Democrats will take the Senate,” they wrote on Tuesday.

The firm has a massive policy and research arm, with its leaders all having experience that ranges from working on Wall Street to government posts in Washington.

Myers was the vice chairman at investment firm Evercore before he founded Signum. He’s currently a financial supporter of Biden’s campaign for president. Lukens was a U.S. ambassador under Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state and also worked on national security under President George W. Bush. They have offices in New York, Washington and London.

Fake news. This is trying to influence the elections by bringing out despair. The truth is that President Trump will win by a bigger margin than in 2016

Perhaps these “smart” investors haven’t heard the following quote yesterday from Joe Biden, mixed in with other inane statements that can only proceed from a mind addled by dementia (its online, go to Breitbart for the crazy video and recording): “Stop the cold war future that we’re talking about. We’re talking about a peaceful cold war. What are we talking about?”

Fake news.

Well, act as if it's not fake. Vote as if our lives depend on it, because it really does. Make sure every like minded person you know gets out and votes. If they are old farts, take a vacation day and offer to drive them to the polls.

This global advisory firm has roughly 10 employees. The boss is a long time Hillary/Dem operative.

Talking his book. Big whoop.

LOL! In their dreams.

Never gonna happen.

I will place a bet with anyone that President Trump will be re-elected in a landslide.

I will personally fly to Colorado to vote for him.

The money quote:

“... He’s currently a financial supporter of Biden’s campaign for president ...”

There you have it. The guy is an active investor in Biden’s candidacy. So of course he is going to tell his clients that Biden will win, along with the Senate.

But that's just it, they won't. All of the crazies will suddenly go away, and the Democrats will sound like "Centrists", heck you'll even hear some of them start saying good things about Trump, what do they care, as long as they have power.

If I had an account with them, I’d close it after doing a bit of research.

No way. Besides, we’re seeing a D future now..... in Seattle, Michigan, Minnesota, DC, Pennsylvania. No need to ruin the rest of the country....there’ll be no place to hide.

These polls mimic ‘16, and Biden is worse in many ways than Hillary. COVID and the economy will be blips by Nov. MSM and twitter want us to think the end is near while DjT’s majority is silent and must remain silent for fear of harassment.
