Preliminary Q3 GDP is due on Thursday. I have heard estimates it will come in at a whopping 30% to 35% (annualized), making it one of if not THE biggest quarterly GDP in US history.

No, historically because of the money spent on campaigning that flows into the economy, the market goes up prior to the elections. Then, afterwards, it goes down.

Sell on the news.

A Trump win has already been discounted by smart money.

I think so, but also realize they KNOW that a Trump victory will be, in the short term, massive chaos.

Better luck next time. I know...we were all guessing.
