Re: why vote for biden?
BR is opposed to TITLE IX.
is that the position of the democratic party and joe biden? if so, let me count the number of millions of voters he just lost.

Just for the record, I'm not an advisor to Biden or his minions and henchlings.

Notes, how could you possibly infer that all I have cared about in all my posts is what is good for me? Am I to take this as some sort of compliment from you, to be compared to your hero, and role model lying donald trump? Even if meant as a compliment, no thank you.

I posted about what I think will happen after the election. Not what happen ed up until now. Just my opinion. Guess we will see. I have another prediction. If Biden wins, I don’t believe he will serve long and Hartis will take over. I told my family this a month before he picked her. Again guess we will see. Also I would have to fact check, but I believe Forbes said the market gains since both were elected O and T the market gains were in the 30’s percent wise. See Forbes both in their 30’s since elections

Olds, the stock market will move and move big IMO after the election. I think more likely it will depend on the status of Covid19 at that time more so than who wins the election. My gut is telling me to get completely out of stocks within the next 30 days. I think I will keep my bonds. Then look to reposition after the first of the year. Days like today have me scratching my head as the DIA was up big early mainly because Putin announced Russia is rolling out a vaccine for its citizens only to be down across the board by the end of the day.
I got trounced solidly today even while the market was still up big. My metal positions, GLD, SCCO, WPM all went down as did my utility positions ED, FE, and EXC. By the end of the day these positions recovered a little while overall my portfolio continued to go down. I am back to about even in stocks since the beginning of the pandemic but with all the uncertainty, I think I may be playing with fire. We are already about two thirds cash so I have missed part of the run up the past 11 years. I thought about moving some to bonds but the good ones are at such a premium right now compared to what I paid for bonds in the past. If you know a good safe way to earn 4 or 5 percent let me know. Unless you are willing to stick your neck out there, investing is a slippery slope right now.

Wish I had a crystal ball, but i agree the market is way way to high considering. Percentage wise, I’m close ro where you are in holdings. A bit more cash abd a bit less bonds, but only 15 percent or so stocks

Wish I could help on a 4 percent yield. My wife’s 403b is earning just that, but you can’t get that now I don’t think. She locked it in in 1986 thank goodness. Our IRA’s are earning just 1.
