Fine, but is he a good investor? I'd like to pre-pick a few stocks in advance depending on who wins.

my $0.02

blue wave= biden+ dem senate + dem house => big spend direct to consumers + infrastructure+ cities and states, market up
trump+ dem senate and house => bid spend but directed differently, more tax cuts, market up but perhaps different sectors, defense, domestic semiconductor eqpt makers, etc
biden+ rep senate => no spend, market down, deeper recession, dollar up

Remember an old rule of investing: buy the rumor, sell the news.

It's quite possible the market goes down regardless of victor.

Good find, Mike. That's somewhat similar to jk's take.

It's the calm before the storm. I see war drum beating regardless of who wins. So gold, energy and maybe defense.

What's up with that?

China has been making long term deals with Iran and other oil producers at crazy low prices, buying up huge amounts of commodities during this pandemic, oil, iron ore, copper. In the meantime, California has no money to buy paper masks.

It's like a neighbor who bought a fanciful tesla to show off to his buddies, but has no money to buy his son a pair of shoes.

Where will China sell her Goods?
Unless she allows her own currancy to rise & her people can afford her goods & services.

Also, the Limeys came VERY close to blackouts this year as the wind didn't blow as much as one had expected.
As GRG55's chart shown, Green power = wet dream.

If Biden suddenly announces that he is withdrawing from the race. What will happen?

[Mega]

DNC will nuke itself

If he wins, you can join the Limy-ville

"Now there are signs that the UK government is preparing a carbon tax, with industry, agriculture and transport all paying for their carbon output. This means that innovators will be encouraged to find new ways of reducing their carbon emissions by technological advances, without the heavy hand of government or the stamped foot of Greta forcing them to limit their activities. If they go ahead with that, then the UK government might well itself deserve a Nobel Prize.
