Today is Election Day in the United States – the time that we exercise a very special right to vote.
I’ve already voted so the drama isn’t really about my ballot. Rather, I get the sense that stock markets the world over will react very positively to a President Donald Trump victory compared to a Madame Vice President Kamala Harris victory. Because of this, I am going to place a very large buy position in the U.S. stock markets for tomorrow’s market reaction – Dow Jones futures contracts to be exact. I’m expecting the Dow to end + 450 points up or more tomorrow.
There’s a few reasons why I’m doing this outside of the overarching obvious one – to make extra Amazon/eBay spending money.
But before I go into my reasons, I do have to say that this should, in no way, be construed as investment advice, this is for entertainment/content purposes only. As I will write in the future, you’ll see that I wager like this often because that’s just what my personality is. This time, however, my wager will be massive.
Ok, onto my reasons:
I want to get my mother 2 or 3 very very nice things for Christmas. My budget only allows for 1 very nice thing for her so it would nice if she opens 2 more nice boxes this year on Christmas morning.
I want to take this once-every-4-years-opportunity to make enough money so that I can really relax and take a breather for the remainder of November instead of working all the way up until both holidays.
Additionally, there’s a used Nikon D850 camera that I want, a specific Ohio State football jersey that I have to pay top dollar for and of course, used video games that I’ll probably never have time to play.
And finally, I need money for a supply of Twizzlers.
Go out and vote folks! It’s a special privilege that men and women have given their lives for.
