Are the markets foreshadowing a Biden victory? Some wealth management folks believe so.

Watching Cuckvuto just now and a couple of Wall Street wealth management folks believe money is flowing out of the market in anticipation of a Biden victory. This makes sense certainly in the short term, higher corporate taxes, higher personal taxes, higher capital gains taxes......yeah, probably a good idea to have a substantial portion of your investments in cash or if you're a gambler short the broad markets.

The markets were foreshadowing a Clinton victory in 2016.

Didn't you people watch this movie 4 years ago?

I'm not saying Trump wins, he may not but the same entities and people doing all the foreshadowing then are the same ones doing it now.

Furthermore, they are the same people that have been wrong about just about everything over the last 4 years.

Take solace in that.

It's called uncertainty. We don't freaking know who our president will be.

Wall Street sees Biden as predictable and not volatile like Trump. They want stability and no drama. They don’t believe he will go full progressive and get all the tax increases. They don’t care about manufacturing anything in the US or restricting illegal immigration. They don’t care about flyover country, just making money for themselves.

I was pitched by a bank’s wealth management team this week. They seemed to think a Biden victory is assured. Suffice it to say, they aren’t getting my $$$!

Probably some protecting themselves just in case Biden wins and expect a big drop in the market should that happen.

Those guys are famous for saying one thing and then playing the other side of the trade.

Nah, market has been choppy. More cash allows institutions to pounce once direction is established.

The investors I know are pulling out everything for themselves and all their clients just as a safety measure to see what the market does after the election. Strictly a precaution. I suspect lots are. I wouldn't read too much in to it.
