Have you or will you change your investment strategies if Biden wins?

I am assuming you are thinking it will crash because values are not supported by earnings. Is that actually the case? Let's say it is.

One of the reasons the values are high is that, as you say, with so much money being printed, and with inflation being currently contained mostly in the financial sector (interest rates dropping to near zero), all those dollars have to go somewhere, one of those places being equities. Bubble City.

But lets say that inflation moves out of the financial sector and into goods and services. As the price index rises, so does the number of dollars being recorded as sales and profit. As more dollars have to go to goods and services, there is less pressure on stock prices while the recorded profits rise to match stock values. Is a soft landing bought with rising prices. Like the covid induced recession that caused it all, it will be a massive transfer of wealth from the middle class to the ultra wealthy.

All that is a step down from a SWAG. Scientific Wild ### Guess.

The left, which loves to bang the drum of wealth inequity to justify raising taxes - the most irrational solution to an unidentified problem in history - never seems to catch on to the fact that govt induced financial fluctuations cause more wealth transfer than plain ol' greed. Both parties do it, and that is what needs to be stopped.

If Bill Gates is pushing for another multi trillion dollar "stimulus" package, you can bet he is the one being stimulated.

All this ish going on in Washington is just cannon fodder

the Street and the Fed will continue doing what they do. we'll get taxed more and those of us who know how to get around will do so, or certainly try our damndest. the middle class will get squeezed for a bit due to the change, but the intelligent ones will figure out a way to cope with it and keep pushing.

the ~10% fringes of society succumbing to the BS will be super excited their team won, and the rest of us will continue to work and provide for our families and do our part to keep the economy going.

there's going to continue to be pressure from Washington to keep the cost of dollars low, so there will be capital flowing in the markets which will lead to jobs / investment. the scumbags on the Street will skim their portions, and the asset bubbles will continue to grow as the fed now has too many fingers in the ### to move away.

I've seen some concepts of the Fed introducing digital currency directly to citizens. Wouldn't be shocked if we see some hints of trying to get there in the next democratic term, but don't see it actually happen until the 2030s

i'm pretty young, so my investment strategy is simply being aggressive and that won't change. the symbols themselves, maybe so, but stonks only go up bro.

only thing i've "changed" in the past 8 months or so is capex allotments to guns and ammo. that and getting TF out of Atlanta. planning to ride this cheap money train to find some alternative hard investments that will be more materially manageable (real estate, for example).
