Just blew through new portfolio high, purchases from Friday and Monday up $14,000. Considering how little I risked to get that I'm pretty happy. Market giving very clean technical moves, the number of people who will have lightened up with no plan for being wrong will be legion.

Picking up the defense stocks when they cratered last week has made me smile today.

I would agree, but a massive truckload of Biden stimulus would make the markets happy too. I think the key indicator is that banks are flying. I think the banks jumping are indicative of a belief in Trump winning.

Financial sector up the most. Maybe they're thinking with Biden you'll have to finance a ham sandwich for lunch. My energy stuff is green, not as much as it was a day or two ago at 3.25% for the day then.

My $2 stock I bought a month or so ago cause I had $2 left in change in my account and didn't want to get it out. It's up 17% since I bought it lol. Should have gone all in, then I'm sure it would have been -90%. Also not enough volume to really even buy that much.

Scraped together another 10k of liquidity and shoved it into my brokerage account. Now to find the best place to put it to work. I was honestly expecting some red this morning.

I was expecting red too. I was not expecting the recent string of subtle acknowledgements from the left that Biden may not win though. I think that is somewhat comforting because it helps legitimize the election and forestall maximum madness. I am sure that we will still get madness, but not to the level it has been expected. Trump 2.0, market go vrooom!!

Figured today would kind of go up and down like the last few days have. If no winner for a while tomorrow or the next few days is when we'll start to see "something", maybe.

Just curious for all these board bros who went to cash expecting a crash, how are you going to approach getting back in?

Most of my cash was from when I rolled over my old 401k to my ira account which was all index funds, so I figure I'll just DCA it back into SPY/QQQ. No point waiting too long, just gotta hold my nose and do it.

Construction companies getting gutted pre-market as split Congress and a Biden White House mean odds of big infrastructure bill sinks.
