Following a Biden victory, what do you think the stock market will do during the next few months? [View all]

I don't own a ton of stocks, but if I did, first thing tomorrow morning I would consider dumping them all.

Trump tweets his lies about the economy as often as he does because his tweets have been influencing the stock market ever since the asshole has been in office. Anytime he tweets his blatant lies about "his" great economy or about the job growth or about anything economy related, a large number of investors seem to suck it up like a vacuum, buy in, and up goes the market. IMO, the market is going to drop significantly once the Liar in Chief is gone. Lardass will be tweeting his lies 24/7 about how awful "Biden's economy" is going to be. Hopefully the media won't give the motherfucker's tweets anywhere near the attention they gave him during the 2016 primaries and the following 4 years.

OTOH, Joe Biden is just too honest to paint an overly rosy picture on an economy that looks like it's going to suffer, thanks to Trump's complete mishandling of the virus and everything else his administration tried to ruin.

Okay, I am far from any expert on stocks, so don't go doing anything based upon my armchair opinion, haha. For all I know, the market could go on to rise like crazy, although I doubt it.
