I am the LAST person on earth to defend Joe Biden on ANYTHING.
However, in this instance, he might have meant to say he does not directly own any individual stocks or bonds, that the securities he owns are held in mutual funds.
But, he was offering up the information as evidence that he's just a regular ol' Joe, who's even more broke than Hillary.
I think Democratic politicians and celebrities are starting to realize that they're on the non-populist side of the class warfare front lines, so they're hoping nobody notices.
You damned well know he was trying to convey to the STUPID, POOR DEMOCRATS, that he’s just one of them!! Well, he’s does have the STUPID part down pat!
His intent was to deceive...and you should know it!
