The election

Re: The election

In other news Dow futures are down by 750 points and counting.
Which makes me think... what if Trump ran for president so that he could tank the markets and clean up by shorting the Dow? THE LONGEST CON

I don't think Trump is smart enough for that one. Grab and hold though. Easy money on either side.

I am livid that Rubio got reelected for the Senate :/ He did fucking nothing when he got elected the first time.

Re: The election

The fact that this could go to the congressional districts to decide a 268/269 split is insane.

Looks like the GOP might be taking it all this year (Presidency, House, Senate)

Presidency isn't set in stone for sure, and senate *could* go blue but yeah house is unsurprisingly sticking with them.

Candidate who focused on trade and the economy is facing a 700 point drop in Dow futures because he is winning ...

Hmm

that's the brexit effect, that's not sticking around.

granted I'm constantly talking out of my ass about these things so maybe don't trust me, but I get the feeling reliable sources will say it's not sticking around.

There's not much reason as of yet that it should stick around.

That and indices closed strong all around. I wouldn't be surprised to see a poor open but there's no real indicators of decline yet. Futures can be extremely manipulable as you have to get something out of the contract. They'd decline not just if the DOW is expected to decline but if it is expected to not come back up in time to meet deadlines, which is a much wider condition.

Re: The election

Trump represents a potential shift in the status quo of American's representation by government. Hillary is the status quo again. Trump is more of a symbol of American's frustration with the system in place now. Neither are great, but Trump represents a higher probability of change. Will that change be good or bad? We'll have to see if he wins. But it's cool to see the people have a voice through Trump.
