Conservative Vs Liberal Investors

  1. I wonder who has done better this last year as I imagine many liberals/leftists felt obliged to be pessimistic about the markets , since a madman was about to take office.

    I don't have any surveys to prove it, but if true , it would prove there is a god.

    Don't you know there's an ETF for everything these days - well Libbers (blue line) and Trumpkins (red line) with S&P (yellow) anyway:

    Politics...can only cloud a trader's thinking. I don't have room for that. I'm about making money and I don't care who's the King (or Queen) of the jungle.

    Usually under democratic governments the stock markets perform much better at least in the US.

    Conservatives as investors take low risk decisions in personal investing but go for high risk and illogical decisions on the collective i.e. governmental basis.

    Don't forget their third twin brother: Socialism. Just as poisonous or even more...:)

    As much as I'd like to agree with you(that's one of the main reasons I'm into trading), there is no denial that "Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist."
