If Harris wins the market will go flat like it has been for most of the Biden presidency until this year.

Not even a 50 percent increase during Biden’s administration will satisfy certain people. Jesus ■■■■■■■ tap dancing christ.

Right. The economy. People are not worrying about what their 401k looks like if they’re not retiring for 15 years. They can’t afford a house. Food is outta control and they are going farther in debt everyday because of dipshiddery. That’s why most of the country thinks things suck. Get it yet?

Don’t think you do either. Based on how you act here.

You have blood and soil issues. Anyone who has complicated beliefs on that is someone I would never want around family members. That sounds roungh but it’s true.

Just for the record, you are denying this? 
“Blood and Soil” people aren’t completely wrong? You do remember this right?

Trump supporters don’t want the market to go up; they don’t want the market to go down; they don’t want the market to stay the same. They just want a Trump-market.

Nice!
congrats!
But umm yeah this chart below is a little dated. It’s from the Economist last fall.
And shows the other 493 since just before the pandemic.
And this chart shows the Russell 2000 small Cap index

Gold, generally seen as a stock alternative
has been running parallel to the S&P for over 14 months
-and-
has matched the S&P since 2008 (a near highpoint in stocks).
That’s not really a sign of the economy.
(Gold doesn’t make anything, trade anything, do anything.)
but rather people are taking money out of that pallet of money the Fed printed and putting it into anything and everything.
neither does crypto. yet its 67000 valuation is up well over 100% in the past year.
id like to see the same chart with BTC.

In this case,
crypto, gold, stocks, NFT a, real estate, land in the metaverse, and consumer items . . . all the same occurrence.
Their heightened price is/was driven not because of something intrinsic to them,
(gold didn’t get shinier, companies didn’t start making more money)
It was all about the Fed printing more cash.
