Wait until the COVID pandemic is fully behind us before giving up your job. Both the economy and the stock market is being propped up by the Feds pumping money into the system. If the money stops flowing we could be facing a deep recession.

Wall Street donated 5 times as much to Biden as they did to Trump. a) They expect Biden to remember that, and b) they don't seriously think that Biden would put their business in Jeopardy. https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/25/business/trump-biden-wall-street-campaign-donations/index.html

Biden said that the transition would be gradual, and that he wanted to move to net-zero emissions in energy production by 2035. With or without Biden, most of the oil industry will go the way of the coal industry by 2035. Natural gas, which is much cleaner, should stick around much longer.

Wait until the next day. If the market opens in your favor, you probably won't get a fill. If not in your favor, you will be the sucker who left an overnight order outstanding.

Even if the Democrats win the White House, House and Senate, I doubt that Biden would have the votes to increase it all the way to 39.6%. Around 28% would be more likely. Either way before December 31st, there would be a selloff from long term stock holders trying to take lock in gains at the...

NY Times: President Trump tweeted on Tuesday that he had instructed his representatives in talks with Democrats over an economic aid package “to stop negotiating until after the election when, immediately after I win, we will pass a major Stimulus Bill that focuses on hardworking Americans and...

By smooth, I am talking about Pence's political ability, not his governing abilities, which I view as very bad. Watch the VP debate tomorrow and you will see how skillfully he deflects questions and defends Trump.

Your best bet is to assign specific benefactors to all of your financial accounts, and leave as little as possible for the executors to do. Joint accounts with right of survivorship also work well.

a. It's too early to tell how he will fare. It typically takes at least 5 days for symptoms to appear. b. Even if he were doing badly, the White House would lie and downplay it.

I doubt it. The left views Trump as very beatable in the upcoming election. His replacement, Mike Pence, on the other hand is a much more smooth politician plus would get the sympathy vote.

Will 2008/2009 lows in real estate ever be broken? Adjusted for inflation, it certainly could happen again. Right now real estate is booming because the Fed is pumping a lot of money into the economy which is propping up the stock market and keeping interest rates at record low. However, if...

Assuming you mean the USA, and you are referring to holidays when the stock market is closed, New Year's Day, Independence Day, and Christmas Day are the only holidays that can fall on a Friday. So you can simply hard code those days. Remember though, that if those holidays fall on a Saturday...

Please explain: a) How is it possible for the government to both keep the money and spend it. b) How do illegals vote?

It's has always been unlikely that Moderna, a company that has never produced any vaccine, would beat experienced pharma/biotech companies like Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Regeneron in the vaccine race.
