it’s not spending money we don’t have......it’s spending money that doesn’t exist
I’m actually gaining on bond investments.
About two months ago, I purchased some municipal bond funds. The value has gone up 5 percent in just a few months. It also earns 5 percent annually.
With Biden on the horizon, investing in China might be the way to go. They own him and his crack head son.
Well duh.
Whatever people THINK the market will do, it will be the opposite. Almost ALWAYS is.
Who is this Biden they refer too, is Chris Wallace doing a hard hitting interview with him anytime soon? Frankly, his lack of tough interviews is the MAJOR STORY of this election.
The stock market did just fine when Barack Obama was in the White House.
If Biden wins, I’m guessing that we’ll see an extended crash. If the Democrats take the Senate, we might see far worse. They’ll proceed to pass legislation to violate the Second Amendment, quickly build up federal police forces and pump pork to state and local governments to confiscate firearms, one household at a time in each community. Those arrested will be slandered by media outlets in every way possible as disgusting dangers to everyone.
If Biden we will experience a total collapse of the economy and a depression the likes have never been seen/thought.
That’s OK, student loans will be paid off, there will be universal health care, reparations will be forthcoming and we will have two new states and at least five new Supreme Court justices. Utopia is only 6 months away...
It did extremely well under Obama.

After the Rs took over the House
Ask Glenn Beck...
Only this time there will be no recovery. None!
Dumped them a long time ago in favor of buying more old gold coins.
Even Obama wasn't as disruptive as the Biden crowd is going to be if they get in.
I believe Obama's administration policies were to a great degree in concert with the liberal capitalists who supported him. However, things have changed in the democrat party. Joe, Nancy and Shummer are now openly supporting and courted socialists, communists and anarchists.
If Joe wins, it will be interesting and maybe frightening to see policies from a party comprised of socialists, communists, anarchists and liberal capitalists. Schizophrenia comes to mind!
Wall Street OWNS these crooked bastards, dude.
Wall Street will do just fine with Biden in the White House.
Yep, I remember when the market was going to tank with Clinton and also Obama. Delaware was a sanctury/tax haven state for large corporations especially card it cards co’s.
Big Corporations will not allow the market to tank under any presidency. They control the country not politicians
Hahaha, cute. ;)
But seriously.
I disagree.
The market was WAAAY oversold in 2008 and early 2009. It really had no place to go but UP. In later 2009-2010, the market climbed out of the huge pit it was in. That reversal was the biggest claim to Obama's "great market."
In 2011, the market recessed a bit, as Obama policies around Obamacare and ideas like green energy and "Cash for Clunkers" set in. That's when we heard that "jobs weren't quite as 'shovel-ready' as we thought..."
2012-14, the market moved upwards, perhaps with encouragement of a mixed Congress. Between 2014 and late 2016, however, the markets were FLAT. very little growth occurred, at least in the broader markets during that time. Only when Trump was elected in late 2016, did we see the upward spike in the stock market--following his tax cut package, we had even more growth.
Yes, there were growth opportunities under Obama, but there are no specific policies that anyone can point to and say, "Obama did that," at least not from a business perspective.
