Sell now, and pocket the cash or turn your 401K stocks into government bonds?

Yes, when Trump preserves his position, you'd take a loss getting back in the market. But otherwise, are you not looking at a 30% dro over the weekend as the fraud continues?

Buy on the rumor, sell on the news.

Dow Jones, S&P, Other Markets Start Slipping as Biden Vote Miraculous Conception Continue Towards 270

The Big Banks and "Money Managers" have been saying for months that the markets will do well even if China Joe wins. My Financial Advisor has been parroting that to me, despite my objections. I had been expecting a meltdown, but due to the outcome uncertainty and I suspect, some intervention by deep pocket libs who will benefit from the offshoring of American jobs, it has been postponed, but will come.

At best, I don’t see a lot of upside here.

Wall Street, China, and the globalists want Biden. If Biden prevails, the stock market won’t do anything special short-term. They’ve already maxxed it for now.

There will likely be some pain in the small caps if Biden prevails. Big Tech and the SP 500 are good with Biden. The new oligarchy.

But unless there is the beginnings of a real, blood-spilling civil war (and I don’t count that out), there won’t be a devastating sell-off of the kind you suggest.

IMHO.

If they take the Senate, I fully expect an effort to nationalize the 401-Ks. Big gubmint will “protect” our hard earned investments.

Pretty small drop compared to the blood in the streets of last week.

I wouldn’t see today as anything more than a normal trading day after a HUGE run the past 4 days.

What happens next week and beyond is anyone’s guess.

Move your money into Emerging Markets funds. Those funds are stuffed with securities from CCP firms and banks. They will grow like topsy under Beijing Biden. Keep your money in US manufacturing if you want to go broke.

Doubtful the market drops 30% over the weekend.

1: I don’t see any reason for the market to go up or down significantly EXCEPT that being winterish, we can expect CV-10 cases to RISE, but this will be under-reported since there is no continuing need to overblame Trump if he has lost. Net effect = appx nothing.

2: It is impossible to escape a feeling of disappointment over Trump’s apparent loss for forum members here. That is immutable, inescapable.

3: Therefore, “today” decisions are likely to be overemotional.

4: My best assessment is that the market DOES NOT CARE whom the winner is. It is overjoyed that the event, the election is over. However, that is already in the market and we’ve already had a massive runup this past week or so.

5: I *DO* expect a considerable market drop into early next year. Circa Feb. Not yet and not now.

Let the Dow Jones, the S & P and other markets slip, slip, slip. The ones that voted for Hiden Biden and Heels up Harris get what they deserve. Unfortunately the rest of us are going to get hurt.

Market is down today because they are waking up to the fact the Senate will also be stolen.
