Bianco,
I realize that you are a highly respected financial analyst but I have to beg to differ with you. You don’t see a crash coming…I do see one coming and it’s already started. Recently, my investment portfolio (going back 5 years) was up 500%. I beat Buffet by a mile over the same period, I also beat alphabet and amazon share prices over the same stretch of time. I’m already down a lot from that day. I inject this personal investment history to let readers know that even though I’m just a dumb farmer, I’ve been beating the crap out of the pros for 5 years, hence you might want to listen to what i say here. The market will continue to fall into the election and will continue to fall until a president is chosen. If Biden wins, it will fall even steeper. This could take another ten days from now or more. I expect the market to drift much lower after the election no matter who wins. The worse dynamic for higher stock prices is uncertainty and we’ll have that in spades.
I’m holding onto a big chunk of cash to load up on miners when It looks like the knife has stopped falling and then buy mining shares at a steep discount.
I fear for America, food riots are coming so the poor masses will join BLM and Antifa in the streets..
I have a small farm in a tropical climate and I produce way more food year around than my small family can possibly consume. Smart investors should be seeking places like I have. Food is the ultimate wealth in hard times and i value my little farm more than anything I own right now … and I own a lot.
