Clinton should've conceded tonight. just gives republicans more ammo.

She apparently conceded to Trump privately, she just didn't give a speech.

tradition is to do a public concession speech the night of the election.


Because Trump is such a fan of tradition?

To all people who say Trump presidency won't hurt them go and phone your retirements funds.

Capital markets are falling, tech giants stocks are plummeting, Dow futures heading into abyss. Now you can learn an extra thing how finance are working. Hint: taxes is a small thing.

please sell all your stock so i can buy it. and in a few years, i will be rich, and you will be poor. im willing to bet my retirement on it.

Thank you for showcasing me the lack of the average financial literacy. The thing is: retirement funds can't readjust their investment strategies the way private investors can. They live and die by the market. And markets will be falling, today is nothing compared to what's to come.

if you think looking at a small snapshot (i.e., a few days) is in any way a reasonable way to handle investing, you have no business investing for yourself, or giving others investment advice. retirement funds should not be readjusting anything, private investors should not be readjusting anything, in light of what has happened today. to do so is folly and people will only lose money. stay the course.

there is a great quote (paraphrased): there are two kind of people, those who know they cant predict the market, and those who dont know they cant predict the market. your statement that "today is nothing compared to what's to come" is completely useless. i hope no one is foolish enough to believe your doom and gloom, or worse, act on it.

Oh, please, it might not have occured to you, but that's the losing strategy in the bear market, lol.



Uhhhhh if you're doing any adjusting it should be to buy more tomorrow. Otherwise you will be perfectly executing the buy high- sell low strategy.

to be fair, you should also be tax loss harvesting, but i dont really consider that an adjustment if you are actually doing it correctly.

i dont know ForTehDarkseid, but i am 105% sure he/she is not qualified to give investment advice.

God forbid me giving private investment advices. I am talking about retirement funds practices of minimizing risks. If you don't see the difference, the joke is on you.

i think you intend to say pension fund, not retirement fund. because my retirement funds (401k, Roth IRA and brokerage account) are all private investments.

and my brokerage firm has already addressed this issue, and believe me, they say ignore you.

https://personal.vanguard.com/us/insights/article/election-impact-portfolio-092016

In most countries, retirement funds are what you are calling pension funds.

Brokerage firm will encourage you to stay no matter what happens in the markets, because that's how they make money for themselves. The stats they provide can't really be an indicator: most people can't stand losing money in a short-run and you can span long-term bullshit as long as you can trade money for the time.

That's exactly what idiots who speak about Wall Street corruption wanted: lose their money.


Yea... Kinda what I'm worried about. When the 2008 crash hit I lost more than 10k overnight. Not looking for that to happen again...

UC SC is supposed to be where all the chill potheads are, but then again it's very far left.

I'm guessing there will be more riots tomorrow, plenty don't even know who won yet.

For France it's not that sure. Should be a highway for Juppé. Like it was supposed to be for Hillary :D

I'm going to change my sig to "Hillary was the problem." Seems like it's going to need repeating.

To be fair, the House and the Senate staying red is far less surprising. It only could catch you off guard if you believed the pollsters saying early that the Dems were gonna flip the Senate.

The guy that completely sold out all of his principles? Sold out to Wall Street?

At least he taught young people a valuable lesson about putting their trust in a career politician. He will never wash that Hillary endorsement and campaigning stink out of himself, never.

What? You do realize she is the reason he won, right? Despite his appeal to white working class voters, a number of these states will be pretty close. It's her.

Maybe you misinterpreted what I said. She is the reason he won.
