https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/index/dxy I feel bad for old people here, they are getting the shaft really. They can't get yield in treasuries, if they try to hold wealth in fiat, they're getting stomped, so now they're forced to go up the risk curve and go into equities even though in reality their portfolio should be heavily bond with small % in stock.

they will attempt to call it a ‘post-election rally’ because of the media call on Saturday. but everyone knows its due to a highly likely scenario that biden, if he wins out, will be a lame duck president. one with no mandate, no plan for economic growth, no method of unifying with people he and his supporters hate, and no legislative influence to support his rumored platform. hell the house of reps is still up for grabs too, somehow, although the (D)s will likely hold it with an extremely unpopular pelosi in charge. a potential biden president will just attempt to EO us back into unfavorable positions for our country, but makes every other nation “happy” - which we all know is what matters most to most USA politicians and almost all lefties
that means likely no removal of tax cuts, no ridiculous tax increases during a pandemic, and no 40%+ capital gains that people like you and me would have to pay. market loves this and with good reason.
not trusting the bounce, not putting more money in
shutdown conversation will start again imo. even if it doesn't happen I think the conversation will inevitably pop up and rile markets. it really has to get passed this 360 level or triple top ...
