Stock market going nuts, and commodity prices booming up. People seem to think good things are about to happen.

Hillary up 1.5M votes, and counting.
Just reporting the news. The speculators are anticipating good times when commodities jump like that.

1.7 million votes currently
Meh
If it had been a popular vote they both would have campaigned differently.
Hillary knew the rules. Deal with it.
gerrymandering, voter suppression/obstruction, rigged!
two things. First, The election was November 8 at which time everyone suspected a Hillary win. Second, they both campaigned on increasing infrastructure spending.
Do you think the markets would have responded in this manner regardless of who was elected?
Hard to say. Market topped out onNovember 11, two days after the election.
Nope. Market topped out higher today.
My point stands. The market was heading up when the world thought Hilary had the election in the bag and both campaigned on increasing infrastructure spending.
How about interest rates? How about commodity prices? Back up your claim.
The stock market isn't going that nuts as a result of Trump. The Dow was in the 18,000s for a lot of last year and this year. In fact, based on the huge tax cuts he's promised, the infrastructure spending and the repatriation tax break... I would have expected it to be quite higher.
It's been a few weeks. Why don't you settle down there cowboy.
You incorrectly predicted a ty market in 2016 under Obama and now you have a market Hard on now that a republican is in office.
All your takes are emotional. Rarely based on reason.
You clearly can't read. I'm out of the market and buying houses instead.
I read just fine. If you would have gone all in in 2016 as opposed to pulling out (running away from the Obama market like you did) would you be up, or down?
but headed up faster after the election
My life is a little more complicated than yours. I'm in the top tax bracket and buying houses I can deduct interest, taxes, maintenance, improvements, and depreciation meaning I save a load on taxes. Rent pays the out of pocket expenses while I build equity. When I sell in retirement IRS will recover the depreciation but by that time ill be in a lower regular tax bracket and gains will be taxed at capital gains rate.
Or leave them to your kids when you die and IRS doesn't capture the depreciation or gains - only way to bypass all the depreciation.
there's an expectation of heavy public spending baked in. unified governments spend more. stimulus plus tax cuts will cost plenty.
same old borrow and spend Republicans
Thats a tiny %
You need to come to terms with what was a close election.
Why would you deprive the IRS of funding more border patrols and strengthening our military?
like the time before, stimulus will work. it will probably be bigger this time.
Unlike some here, I like "my fair share" to be the lowest possible the law will allow and feel no guilt in doing whatever/investing appropriately to accomplish that.
