This will be the first year I have never gone to New York City to enjoy a play and the Christmas cheer. There was nothing quite New York at Christmas. Governor Cuomo just killed New York. Many stores did up to 40% of their profits for the year during the Christmas season. Now any traveler from nearly every state and international flights landing at JFK must show proof of a negative test taken within three days of arriving, and must also quarantine for three additional days — and get a new COVID-19 on the fourth day. If that’s positive, they must isolate for two weeks, the governor said during his Saturday press briefing from Albany.

investmentwatchblog--2020-11-02--These Maps Show Every Country’s Most Valuable Export

The coronavirus disrupted the global economy in more ways than we can count .
With multiple European countries reimposing strict lockdowns in light of a predicted second wave of the virus , international trade is primed for another unstable period .
With that being said , here are the top exports for every country in the world .
• Petroleum is the single most common top export around the world , spanning North America , Africa , the Middle East and Russia .
• Our map illustrates how manufacturing finished goods , like cars and airplanes , is much more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the world .
• Many African economies remain heavily dependent on the export of raw materials , especially petroleum , gold and copper .
• The electronic industry as a top export is most prevalent in Asia , where there is a cluster of countries specializing in high-end electronic devices .
We found the data for our maps at CEPII , a leading French center for economic research and analysis .
We located each country ’ s top export and classified its industry designation according to the UN Comtrade Database .
We then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a snapshot of the world ’ s top export industries as of 2018 , the latest year for which data were available..
The petroleum industry looms large in exports for North America .
According to the US Energy Administration , the US is both the single largest producer and the largest consumer of oil .
Thanks to a boom in hydraulic fracking , the US dramatically slowed its importation of oil and now exports millions of barrels each year around the world ( $ 95.8 ) .
That ’ s one reason why @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world into a lockdown this spring , oil prices plummeted into negative territory .
Mexico meanwhile remains a source of manufacturing vehicles primarily to be sold in US markets ( $ 50.7B ) .
Exports look very different in South and Central America .
There is a cluster of countries in Nicaragua , El Salvador and Guatemala that exports t-shirts around the world .
Further to the south , countries increasingly rely on natural resources and agricultural products .
Venezuela sent $ 23.2B of oil to foreign markets in 2018 , while Brazil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there are also a few obvious exports from Caribbean countries , including cigars from Cuba , yachts from the Cayman Islands and nutmeg from Grenada .
Our snapshot of top exports from Europe highlights an important aspect of how developed economies work .

Even the UK , which isn ’ t known for its auto manufacturing sector , exports $ 43.4B of vehicles .
Our map of Asia stretches from Turkey to Japan , and there are therefore a few different stories to tell .
For starters , Asia exports a lot of finished products to the rest of the world similar to Europe , but the types of manufactured goods and underlying industries are different .
China alone sends over $ 223B of electrical machinery around the world on an annual basis .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ predictably off the charts , topping $ 164.8B each year , or about $ 30B more than Russia .
Perhaps most surprisingly , petroleum is the top export for both India ( $ 41.5B ) and Myanmar ( $ 5.6B ) .
Clearly there ’ s a lot of economic diversity across such a large continent .
The single biggest takeaway from our export map of Africa is how the continent relies almost entirely on raw materials for its top exports .
There isn ’ t a single country specializing in high-end industries @ @ @ @ @ @ @ St. Helena , which is a tiny island nation .
Morocco is the only country supplying finished products as its top export ( automotives ) to the world .
The rest of the continent is focused in heavy industries and raw materials like petroleum , gold and copper exports .
The top exports from countries in Oceania don ’ t come with any surprises .
Island nations specialize primarily in fishing industries and the manufacturing of yachts and cruise ships .
Australia ’ s single biggest export is coal ( $ 57.2B ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exporter in the world behind Switzerland ( $ 63.8B ) .
The coronavirus pandemic is scrambling the world ’ s supply chains and rewriting the norms of international trade .
How do you think the pandemic will impact the world ’ s top exports like petroleum ?

China alone sends over $223B of electrical machinery around the world on an annual basis. Saudi Arabia’s oil industry is predictably off the charts, topping $164.8B each year, or about $30B more than Russia. Perhaps most surprisingly, petroleum is the top export for both India ($41.5B) and Myanmar ($5.6B). Clearly there’s a lot of economic diversity across such a large continent.
The single biggest takeaway from our export map of Africa is how the continent relies almost entirely on raw materials for its top exports. There isn’t a single country specializing in high-end industries like medicine, with the exception of St. Helena, which is a tiny island nation. Morocco is the only country supplying finished products as its top export (automotives) to the world. The rest of the continent is focused in heavy industries and raw materials like petroleum, gold and copper exports.
The top exports from countries in Oceania don’t come with any surprises. Island nations specialize primarily in fishing industries and the manufacturing of yachts and cruise ships. Australia’s single biggest export is coal ($57.2B), making it the second largest minerals exporter in the world behind Switzerland ($63.8B).
The coronavirus pandemic is scrambling the world’s supply chains and rewriting the norms of international trade. How do you think the pandemic will impact the world’s top exports like petroleum? Let us know in the comments.

An unprecedented stock market crash is right at the corner. In face of mounting uncertainty surrounding the coming elections, new BofA data suggests that a 20% market plunge will be seen in a couple of days. The prospect of a contested outcome might crush investors expectations and finally trigger the ultimate downfall. In this video, we discuss this perfect storm investors have been long fearing.
This year, the global health crisis has prompted the benchmark S&P 500 to shrunk 34% in a matter of just 33 days. And then, stock markets experienced the fastest snap-back rally to new highs from a bear market low on record. According to history, a stock market crash or correction was already highly expected.
Doomsday predictions for the stock market have been piling up, and volatility is just one of the factors of influence for the coming crash. Domestic equity funds are also riding a 19-week streak of ongoing outflows that are happening just when U.S. Treasury yields are on record-lows. Investors seeking guaranteed income have been coping with only a 0.8% yield on the 10-year Treasury note.
That’s to say, Treasury bondholders are going to lose loads of money if they decide to keep holding on to these bonds until maturity. And this is just the beginning. The possibility of another round of lockdown restrictions both within and outside the United States has been scaring investors who desperately need business activity to resume since the increasing delinquency rates for mortgages, rent, credit cards, and personal loans that are likely to skyrocket in the coming months.
The elections’ uncertainty can also swiftly become a major problem. Wall Street doesn’t care about who will be named as a winner, but the lack of a clear result that could create a contested election causing the markets to rattle.
The biggest concern for investors is reviving the 2000 election scenario of Al Gore vs. George W. Bush, which lingered for 34 days after the vote counting and required Supreme Court intervention to decide who was the winner.
In the case of a close election, it will take time to count and invariably re-count all the absentee and mail-in ballots, which would be the worst-case scenario for the market, jeopardizing the market performance into the year-end, especially because the economy is in desperate need of another round of stimulus relief.
The most urgent worry now is that a delay in the settlement of a new president would also imply a delay in delivering more much-needed federal assistance. In the absence of a clear winner, it will become even harder to advance stimulus legislation through Congress during the weeks after the election. That would coincide with the holiday season, and consequently, undermine the projected upswing in consumer spending and put the holiday spending season at risk.
Stocks are expected to drop in all sectors since investors aren’t accounting for that. Their anguish surrounding the issuance of a new stimulus bill also exposes how markets have become too dependent on government open-handedness, but there’s only so much that governments can do. A cobra effect is being formed on the markets and so much unbacked stimulus will cause a hyperinflationary economic collapse, which means the next stock market crash will merely be one more chapter of this multi-faced economic collapse, but hardly the end-line.

Determining the Next Big Move

Crude oil started this week with a bearish price gap and a breakdown below the September and October lows .

First of all , crude oil stopped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the previous 2020 decline , which means that it was quite likely a real top instead of a fake one that will be broken shortly .
Second , the initial decline was followed by a zigzag , which is a classic corrective pattern .

investmentwatchblog--2020-11-02--2 huge reasons why Joe Biden could lose that hardly anyone is talking about

Most people have been assuming that the big national polls have to be wrong in order for Joe Biden to lose this election .
But in this article I am going to explain why the big national polls could be 100 percent accurate and Joe Biden could still lose .
In this election , there could potentially be millions of votes that are cast by mail for Joe Biden that do not get counted .
Some mail-in ballots will not be counted because they are rejected for one reason or another , and others will not be counted because they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As I will discuss in this article , combining those two factors together could be more than enough to deliver victory for President Trump .
Throughout this election season , Democrats have been aggressively promoting voting by mail .
Ironically , that could end up being the exact reason why they lose this election .
I am not predicting the outcome of this race one way or the other , but if the Democrats come up short they will only have themselves to blame .
In a previous article , I discussed the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supporters are more than twice as likely to vote by mail as Trump supporters are .
But those that vote by mail are in significant danger of not having their votes counted for a couple of reasons .
First of all , large numbers of ballots are rejected by officials for various reasons in every election .
And because so many Americans are voting by mail in 2020 , it is being projected that more than a million mail-in ballots could potentially be rejected this time around… Because Biden supporters are far more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vast majority of those rejected ballots will be coming from Biden supporters .
In particular , a unique rule in Pennsylvania could be especially painful for the Biden campaign .
For this election , any ballot that is sent in without a “ secrecy envelope ” will automatically be rejected .
The following comes from NPR… So how many votes could potentially be rejected because of this rule ?
Well , one official has estimated that 100,000 ballots could be thrown out statewide… In the end , that could be enough to put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s column .
And as I keep telling my readers , whoever wins Pennsylvania is probably going to win the presidency .
Secondly , there are millions of mail-in ballots floating around out there that won ’ t be sent in on time or that won ’ t be sent in at all .
According to the latest numbers , more than 59 million mail-in ballots have been returned , but more than 31 million mail-in ballots have not been returned .
Voters will continue to send in more mail-in ballots with each @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will fully believe that their votes will be counted .
But in many states it is already too late to send in ballots .
In fact , CNN warned that it was probably already too late to send in ballots back on October 29th… In the end , both campaigns could potentially lose millions of votes because ballots were mailed too late , but Biden will lose far more than Trump will because Biden supporters are much more likely to vote by mail .
On top of everything else , serious mail delays @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country because of the massive number of ballots that are going through the system .
In particular , mail delivery in the Philadelphia area has gotten extremely slow… Needless to say , Democrats are counting on Philadelphia voters in a major way , but if large numbers of ballots are not delivered on time that could cripple their hopes .
President Trump may not have realized it initially , but he was doing exactly the right thing by strongly urging his voters to vote in person .
Any votes that are cast in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by mail is going to be a hit or miss proposition in 2020 .
Ultimately , Joe Biden may still end up winning , but without a doubt it was a gigantic strategic mistake to promote voting by mail so heavily .
When it is all over , the Biden campaign may look back and see that they had millions of additional voters that actually wanted to vote for their candidate .
But in order to count , any votes must follow proper procedure and they must be delivered on time .
If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reasons I have discussed in this article are likely to be the deciding factor , and most of the talking heads on television will never even realize what happened .

Most people have been assuming that the big national polls have to be wrong in order for Joe Biden to lose this election. But in this article I am going to explain why the big national polls could be 100 percent accurate and Joe Biden could still lose. In this election, there could potentially be millions of votes that are cast by mail for Joe Biden that do not get counted. Some mail-in ballots will not be counted because they are rejected for one reason or another, and others will not be counted because they were simply sent in too late. As I will discuss in this article, combining those two factors together could be more than enough to deliver victory for President Trump.
Throughout this election season, Democrats have been aggressively promoting voting by mail.
Ironically, that could end up being the exact reason why they lose this election.
I am not predicting the outcome of this race one way or the other, but if the Democrats come up short they will only have themselves to blame.
In a previous article, I discussed the fact that surveys have shown that Biden supporters are more than twice as likely to vote by mail as Trump supporters are. But those that vote by mail are in significant danger of not having their votes counted for a couple of reasons.
First of all, large numbers of ballots are rejected by officials for various reasons in every election. And because so many Americans are voting by mail in 2020, it is being projected that more than a million mail-in ballots could potentially be rejected this time around…
Absentee ballot rejections this November are projected to reach historic levels, risking widespread disenfranchisement of minority voters and the credibility of election results, a USA TODAY, Columbia Journalism Investigations and PBS series FRONTLINE investigation found. At least 1.03 million absentee ballots could be tossed if half of the nation votes by mail. Discarded votes jump to 1.55 million if 75% of the country votes absentee. In the latter scenario, more than 185,000 votes could be lost in Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin – states considered key to capturing the White House.
Because Biden supporters are far more likely to vote by mail, the vast majority of those rejected ballots will be coming from Biden supporters.
In particular, a unique rule in Pennsylvania could be especially painful for the Biden campaign. For this election, any ballot that is sent in without a “secrecy envelope” will automatically be rejected. The following comes from NPR…
A Pennsylvania court has introduced a strict new rule for voters in what is perhaps the most important swing state in the United States. The state sends out an extra “secrecy” envelope with all its mail ballots. And the court has now decided that if voters forget to include that envelope when they return their ballots — an error that’s being termed a “naked ballot” — their votes will be automatically void.
So how many votes could potentially be rejected because of this rule?
Well, one official has estimated that 100,000 ballots could be thrown out statewide…
Philadelphia officials tracked the issue in the 2019 general election and said over 6% of the absentee ballots they received were missing secrecy envelopes. That election came before a significant expansion of the state’s mail-voting laws, so the county received only a fraction of the mailed ballots it will in this year’s election. Lisa Deeley, a Philadelphia city commissioner, used the percentage to extrapolate the impact that blanket naked-ballot rejections might have statewide. She came up with an attention-grabbing number: 100,000 ballots could be invalidated.
In the end, that could be enough to put the state of Pennsylvania in Trump’s column.
And as I keep telling my readers, whoever wins Pennsylvania is probably going to win the presidency.

Secondly, there are millions of mail-in ballots floating around out there that won’t be sent in on time or that won’t be sent in at all.
According to the latest numbers, more than 59 million mail-in ballots have been returned, but more than 31 million mail-in ballots have not been returned.
Voters will continue to send in more mail-in ballots with each passing day, and most of them will fully believe that their votes will be counted.
But in many states it is already too late to send in ballots. In fact, CNN warned that it was probably already too late to send in ballots back on October 29th…
Do this math: USPS says it needs seven days to safely deliver ballots. We’re five days out from November 3. Bottom line: If you’ve got a mail-in ballot, you probably shouldn’t mail it.
In the end, both campaigns could potentially lose millions of votes because ballots were mailed too late, but Biden will lose far more than Trump will because Biden supporters are much more likely to vote by mail.
On top of everything else, serious mail delays are now being reported all over the country because of the massive number of ballots that are going through the system.
In particular, mail delivery in the Philadelphia area has gotten extremely slow…
Timely mail delivery across Pennsylvania took a drastic turn for the worse in just the last two weeks amid a glut of voting by mail, according to U.S. Postal Service data filed Wednesday in federal court. In Philadelphia, 42% of all first-class mail is taking longer than five days to be delivered.
Needless to say, Democrats are counting on Philadelphia voters in a major way, but if large numbers of ballots are not delivered on time that could cripple their hopes.
President Trump may not have realized it initially, but he was doing exactly the right thing by strongly urging his voters to vote in person. Any votes that are cast in person will be counted, but voting by mail is going to be a hit or miss proposition in 2020.
Ultimately, Joe Biden may still end up winning, but without a doubt it was a gigantic strategic mistake to promote voting by mail so heavily.
When it is all over, the Biden campaign may look back and see that they had millions of additional voters that actually wanted to vote for their candidate. But in order to count, any votes must follow proper procedure and they must be delivered on time.
If Trump wins, I believe that the reasons I have discussed in this article are likely to be the deciding factor, and most of the talking heads on television will never even realize what happened.
