The market is looking forward to some adult leadership and a steady
hand on the helm (note sly boating reference). :-)

Actually, the market likes stability, and it liked Trump until covid. Record low unemployment, business booming, etc. Remember? Pfizer announced a covid vaccine that appears to be 90% effective, and the market is reacting to that.

But hey, don't let reality get in the way of a political rant.

I'm about as apolitical as anyone on this group with the possible
exception of Greg. And actually the market has been doing quite well
even before the Pfizer announcement. Trump has no one to blame but
himself for the mismanagement of Covid and it probably cost him the
election. Denying science and spreading misinformation is a recipe
for disaster.


Trump lost because the "I hate Trump" people turned out and there were
about 76 million of them. Trump's 71 million was also a record.


Trump lost because the majority of voters controlling enough Electoral
College votes determined with finality that Trump was incompetent, a
racist pig, and unfit for the office. If tens of millions of voters
"hated" Trump, it was because of his horrific behavior and policies.
Recovering from Trumpism will be a true test of this country's mettle.

boost after spending 100k on her education?
