Do you think the stock market will take a hit regardless of who's elected president?

In other words, if DT wins, the market tanks. Spell it out for the nice people.

You guys seem to know little about today's stock market.

The stock market is at record highs for one simple reason. The Federal Reserve.

The Fed has done QE1, QE2, QE3, ...... , QEn.

How do you think that money gets into the system? They aren't tossing out of helicopters. It's all going into the stock market. When that tap is turned off, you will see the stock market collapse. Doesn't matter who is sitting in the White House.


You guys who are heavily vested in stocks, better have a plan.

The banks are ready to collapse and the stock market will have a major downturn leading to a housing crash and a downturn in the economy as well as a big rise in unemployment. Yeah, but Hillary's friends are ready to gain by everybody's else's losses.

When I expressed concern regarding the election of Bill Clinton, my broker informed me that the market is always better when a D is in the White House. So far, so good.
