Gold mining shares are good.
Mine are up 2-3% today despite the crash but I've only got around $1200 in them.

Doesn't the stock market auto shut down after 500 point drops to make sure there isn't a major crash?


Only during active trading, although I just saw a tweet that they shut down futures trading.

Not sure everyone realized that this is what "blowing things up" looks like. Or maybe they just don't care?

Looking at the election results, it is not that they don't care, they are actually just that dumb.

I don't support market timing, but if you see this as Brexit 2.0 it's a buying opportunity.


I'm definitely buying, but I'm just curious cause with Bush I lost 10k in my 401k....

They've been going after her forever and haven't pinned anything on her. This changes nothing.

Thats a naive way of looking at it. She is going to jail, no Obama regime to protect her now.


Dude, she's still a clinton. It's not the "obama regime" protecting her, but her name. And that didn't change.

The establishment protects the Clintons, the establishment is now dead. It all now depends on how much political will there is to go after the criminals in Washington.

You might be fooled by media and your impression might be wrong.

If you sort the polls by education, you see that majority of people with college education vote Clinton, and people with lower education vote Trump. That's what you hear in media all the time, and you might then think that poor people all vote Trump, but that might not be true.

If you sort the polls by income, you'll see that the majority of poor people vote Clinton. After a certain income level, the majority is for Trump.

Check out this poll here for example: http://cesrusc.org/election/

well, i will be buying now instead of at the end of the month when i usually buy. have to take advantage of this small dip, which like brexit will probably recover soon after.

It's kind of weird to see people in this thread who don't live in the US be more excited about a Trump win than I've been about any election I've been alive for.

Obviously I'll have my opinion on things but insofar as the results won't really affect my day to day life in an immediate way, it's hard to muster more than an apathetic reaction, regardless of the results.

Exception of course being people who actually made money betting on the election.

It's the same bullshit as Brexit. They don't care they just want funny shit to happen for their entertainment.

And this is pretty funny.

You're overdramatizing the Trump win. The establishment is far from dead.

It takes more than a single presidential election to uproot the Washington establishment. They've been playing damage control since the day Trump became the Republican nominee, and until the public figures out they need to actually care about more than the presidential election, they'll stay where they are.

When you say money, are you just holding cash? If so then it makes no sense to cash out. Even if you have index funds, the reason you hold them is to mitigate risk through diversification.

We'll see. I'll bet nothing will happen. I will say this though: people are WAY too excited about this win. There will be a harsh disappointment for people (you included) once you realize how little will change.

If you're holding gold, now (or better yet, noon tomorrow) is a good time to rebalance some of it into stocks.

It's probably true.

Uhhh, it has already dropped probably the largest amount it will, and it would have to drop a shit ton more for it to make the penalty worth it.
