Agreed, @Buy1Sell.

Assuming Trump isn't struck very hard and immobilized it can turn out very well for him. Boris Johnson was hit quite hard though. A similar fate for Trump should not turn out positive (for him)...

For all we know - the picture I posted may have an element of truth in it.

Strong leader---recovery and appearances on TV and Zoom etc will show that the disease can be overcome and will give confidence in leadership.

It’s common knowledge disease can be overcome. I don’t think anyone but his most devout followers consider him a strong leader. At this point, I don’t think anything he does can give confidence in his leadership.

Let's move your comments to the politics section. Thank you.
 
Market is holding up pretty well. RTY almost back to even....very strong.
Since the morning rally, and then the retracement....man, we've gone choppy....big time.
 
Looks like I missed a good day to trade. I don't understand all this political talk, I mean are you really taking trades based on this information and if so how do you derive any type of consistent and constant measurable advantage from looking / trading the news?

I just don't personally see it that way, I mean we were already discussing yesterday how the larger charts were in a difficult position to have sustained up moves, so looking for news to justify a down move, doesn't serve much purpose particularly for day trading.

If you're a longer term investor, I could see factoring in the news and adjusting your holdings would make a little more sense, but even than it can become difficult.

You shouldnt, but a lot do. I was watching the charts when that big downtrend happened after Trump announced he had COVID. However, at the time I had no clue about the news and was just watching based on price action.

News/earnings and whatever else is normally factored into the price before anything ever comes out. By the time news has reached the masses its already been implemented into the price.
