    In the above picture of the hordes, we can see......Orientals, Jews, Eastern Europeans, East Indians, Muslims, Africans, Mexicans.

    However, strange presence is that of Native Americans. How come natives have become a foreign horde immigration to America.

    The kid is white and blonde and so is the gal. Pure Nazism trying to unleash its fangs again.

    Do people really believe that anything the government does gets reflected by the longer-term market performance at all?

    PS. I have a strategy that is trading on the tweets of the Great Leader. SR of 2.2 :)

    This is actually a very interesting question and I would be interested in any research anyone has on this.

    Also, I wonder what would happen if the market corrected too.

  4. You underestimate the hatred many have for trump.

    I'd expect many of them pulled back hard expecting riots in the streets and a military coup

  6. My first thought seeing that pic was that it was satire--though on further reflection I suspect mediocre minds actually believe that.

    To directly answer the question I would guess the effects are negligable. Gates, Soros, Buffet, and Bezos would be interesting case studies in their own right (do you have to get down the list to the Waltons before you get a republican?). But so much more money is just put into funds than traded with a political slant.

    Common sense would suggest that fact checking or sourcing would give a considerable advantage, but I doubt this plays out along partisan lines. There's doubtlessly a gap in sourcing competency between Democrats and Republicans, but those who do worst at it are also those with the least money to invest.

    The only other one would be correlation between risk-taking and liberalism. On this point, I suspect that the best and worst traders are liberals.

    And bets on the MAGA manager being a democrat? I bet there's a lot of satisfaction to be had by taking fees exclusively from republicans.

    Oh yeah. Remember that one time when Denmark invaded....

  7. Was this thread not started in Economics or investment?

    Soes is an out of control basket case, he needs to be suspended for a few weeks.

  8. That's right, in Economics. The Economics of investing.

    No prob having it moved to politics.

    Funny how some folks focus on the graphic, and not the subject matter

  9. You might have a career at Twitter, who according to recent undercover reports, is also a believer in censorship
