No, you are wrong and I am right.

The stock market is predictive, not reactive.

The SP500 peaked in early October, then sensed the Democrats would win the House.

The market predicted the Democrats would win the House around Oct 1, and began to sell off.

Sorry.

Ok. Whatever. I make my living in the markets. I literally am in front of a trading computer every day the markets are open. I watch Twiiter feeds and how the markets react and trade SPY/QQQ puts and calls (strangles and straddles) accordingly). I’ve watched a perfectly green market tank on a Trump tweet, and I watched a recovering market drop 2% on a tweet (like yesterday). Our trading team worked puts and shorts (and TVIX) into our strategy for the fall-and especially December and it had zero to do with the election. But you’re the genius.

Not that you will care-but the Nikkei dropped 5% today. Global markets are and have been selling off. It’s not because the Dems won the election. This is from Investing.com and this is the Japanese take on it-“Japanese stocks have been caught in a global market rout, spurred by concerns about everything from the U.S.-China trade war to global central banks’ moves to tighten monetary policy. Sentiment has deteriorated in December, with foreign investors offloading billions of dollars in the country’s shares.”

And that is a huge factor-the global economy and the fact Central banks all over the world are tightening monetary policy. Free and cheap money and the bubble in the economy and the markets it created are coming to an end. Everyone knows it. It’s the globalists plan to crash it all to bring it all together.
