Technical Analysis Predicts Growth to Nasdaq
@mardermarket, trader and co-founder of the Market Watch news portal, notes the positive dynamics emerging in the Nasdaq Index, one of the main indicators of the state of the US economy as a whole.
There are few things as classic in life as the Nasdaq forming a cup-with-handle in mid-October amid uncertainty (e.g. a war or the economy), in this case the election, growth-stock strength, and just ahead of the historically bullish Nov/Dec/Jan period #stocks Chart MarketSmith@mardermarket via Twitter

S&P 500 Is Ready to Fall
Earlier, another analyst, @MacroCharts, predicted that the S&P 500 could collapse. He drew the attention of followers to the fact that there was a serious gap in the index. On the one hand, the index itself has long since recovered from the March crisis and even from the September correction. On the other hand, about 40% of all stocks included in it are still below the 52-week highs. Therefore, the analyst believes, any serious sale can lead to a massive correction of the entire index.

Same pathetic media that ran with the “Trump-Russia collusion” hoax for years on NO evidence won’t cover Biden corruption story with an abundance of evidence (and a witness!)

( Natural News ) For more than four years , the “ mainstream media ” trumpeted the lie that the 2016 campaign of Donald Trump “ colluded ” with Mother Russia to “ steal the election ” from the most inept presidential contender ever , Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton .
But now that there IS evidence of a scandal — about a democrat — the media is silent .
There was never any evidence that collusion existed between Trump ’ s team and the Russians .
The deep state produced a bogus “ dossier ” that was compiled by a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the document ( and his efforts ) was funded by the Clinton campaign ; the FBI new the document was phony but elements of the bureau used it anyway to get four FISA court warrants so they could spy on the Trump campaign and then the president himself , via a former adviser , Carter Page .

Russians say Hillary Clinton created the “ Trump collusion ” lie in order to undermine and entrap him in scandal and get him thrown out of office . )
To this day , the same garbage media continues to allow goofball partisans and Russia truthers like House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff ( D-Calif. ) to lie about Russian ‘ collusion.
’ It never happened .
And what ’ s more , the media knew it never happened , but because the lie was intended to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ad nauseam for years .
The media claimed that they had to report it because there were investigations going on and there were various claims made by various federal officials ( whose names were always confidential ) and so forth — even though there was never any evidence of said collusion .
Now , juxtapose that scenario with the burgeoning , massive scandal involving the Biden Crime Family ’ s pay-to-play corruption schemes involving foreign governments and entities in Ukraine , Moscow ( ! )
, Kazakhstan , and China : Actual evidence @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but the garbage media is working to bury the story , and why ?
Because they claim ‘ there ’ s no corroboration of the evidence.

There are multiple sources of information .
There are emails .
There are documents .
There are photos .
There are videos .
There is an eyewitness .
So , what ’ s the problem ?
Oh , that ’ s right .
Biden is a Democrat , and since the mainstream media is really just the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they are making up every excuse in the book , using every hypocritical angle , to ignore how someone who could very well be president in a few days is also the same someone who is very compromised by foreign powers .

(Natural News) For more than four years, the “mainstream media” trumpeted the lie that the 2016 campaign of Donald Trump “colluded” with Mother Russia to “steal the election” from the most inept presidential contender ever, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. But now that there IS evidence of a scandal — about a democrat — the media is silent.
There was never any evidence that collusion existed between Trump’s team and the Russians. The deep state produced a bogus “dossier” that was compiled by a former British spy named Christopher Steele; the document (and his efforts) was funded by the Clinton campaign; the FBI new the document was phony but elements of the bureau used it anyway to get four FISA court warrants so they could spy on the Trump campaign and then the president himself, via a former adviser, Carter Page.
And it turns out that U.S. intelligence officials and the FBI knew that Hillary was the one who invented the collusion hoax in the first place in order to take heat off of her for alleged criminal mishandling of classified emails. (Related: Obama knew, too! Russians say Hillary Clinton created the “Trump collusion” lie in order to undermine and entrap him in scandal and get him thrown out of office.)
To this day, the same garbage media continues to allow goofball partisans and Russia truthers like House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) to lie about Russian ‘collusion.’
It never happened. And what’s more, the media knew it never happened, but because the lie was intended to hurt President Trump, it was repeated ad nauseam for years.
The media claimed that they had to report it because there were investigations going on and there were various claims made by various federal officials (whose names were always confidential) and so forth — even though there was never any evidence of said collusion.
Now, juxtapose that scenario with the burgeoning, massive scandal involving the Biden Crime Family’s pay-to-play corruption schemes involving foreign governments and entities in Ukraine, Moscow (!), Kazakhstan, and China: Actual evidence exists of these potentially criminal schemes, but the garbage media is working to bury the story, and why?
Because they claim ‘there’s no corroboration of the evidence.’
Say what?
Literally, there is all kinds of corroboration. There are multiple sources of information. There are emails. There are documents. There are photos. There are videos. There is an eyewitness.
So, what’s the problem? Oh, that’s right.

investmentwatchblog--2020-10-26--The Big tech Conundrum

The Big tech Conundrum

Ordinary Americans have long been raising concerns about the increasing power that Big Tech has over our lives .
When it is virtually impossible for even the most powerful politicians and celebrities to get their message across without platforms such as Google , YouTube , Facebook and Twitter , how much more difficult would it be for the ordinary person ?
The insidious power of Big Tech collusion was on full display in mid-October 2020 , a mere two weeks before the U.S. Presidential election .
Respected news publication The New York Post broke the story that former Vice President @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Joe Biden may have been severely compromised .
At the heart of the explosive evidence was a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden , son of the former VP who has struggled with substance abuse issues for decades .
Apart from photographs of Hunter smoking crack and cavorting with underage girls , there were thousands of emails detailing deep-seated and persistent corruption by the Biden family .
Twitter immediately shut down the New York Post ’ s account .
It did the same with Kayleigh McEnany , the official White House spokeswoman herself .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ or share the story came up against the same impenetrable wall .
Faceless people in ivory towers were censoring the truth .
It was the Orwellian nightmare come to life .
Twitter and other tech giants and ‘ progressive ’ publications were actively suppressing a story damaging to the Democrats .
The corruption was no simple matter of trading lucrative CFDs on the side but large-scale international corruption worth billions of dollars .
The source itself was impeccable – none other than prominent lawyer and former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani himself .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ferocity with which the mainstream media averted its eyes .
All the channels that were previously regurgitating the outright lies and half-truths from the Hilary Clinton-funded Steele dossier suddenly averse to salacious details .
Joe Biden attended a 90-minute town hall and was not asked a single question about it .
Independent analysts critical of the Big Tech hegemony on facts like Tim Pool and Mark Dice have long been calling for a Congressional review of the lopsided equation .
The response from lawmakers , including Republicans , has been tepid at best @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Alphabet , Google ’ s parent company has emerged as the largest lobbyist on Capitol Hill , outspending even the military industrial complex .
The Trump White House is itself partly to blame ; there should have been a concerted effort to address the imbalance much earlier .
As far back as 2016 , evidence collected by investigative organizations like Project Veritas showed the depth of prejudice and intolerance rampant at companies like Google .
With nefarious practices like shadow banning and suppression emerging as the tools of the trade , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reeled in .
It is already happening in other countries .
Singapore came down hard on Facebook for its evasive answers to questions of censorship .
If a tiny nation like that can stand up for itself , why can ’ t the United States and the rest of the world ?

Twitter immediately shut down the New York Post’s account. It did the same with Kayleigh McEnany, the official White House spokeswoman herself. Anyone else who attempted to refer to or share the story came up against the same impenetrable wall. Faceless people in ivory towers were censoring the truth.
It was the Orwellian nightmare come to life.
Twitter and other tech giants and ‘progressive’ publications were actively suppressing a story damaging to the Democrats. The corruption was no simple matter of trading lucrative CFDs on the side but large-scale international corruption worth billions of dollars. The source itself was impeccable – none other than prominent lawyer and former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani himself.

Those facts did nothing to assuage the ferocity with which the mainstream media averted its eyes. All the channels that were previously regurgitating the outright lies and half-truths from the Hilary Clinton-funded Steele dossier suddenly averse to salacious details. Joe Biden attended a 90-minute town hall and was not asked a single question about it.
Is There Recourse?
Independent analysts critical of the Big Tech hegemony on facts like Tim Pool and Mark Dice have long been calling for a Congressional review of the lopsided equation.
The response from lawmakers, including Republicans, has been tepid at best. That is hardly a surprise given that Alphabet, Google’s parent company has emerged as the largest lobbyist on Capitol Hill, outspending even the military industrial complex.
The Trump White House is itself partly to blame; there should have been a concerted effort to address the imbalance much earlier. As far back as 2016, evidence collected by investigative organizations like Project Veritas showed the depth of prejudice and intolerance rampant at companies like Google.
With nefarious practices like shadow banning and suppression emerging as the tools of the trade, the billionaire Big Tech magnates have to be reeled in. It is already happening in other countries. Singapore came down hard on Facebook for its evasive answers to questions of censorship. If a tiny nation like that can stand up for itself, why can’t the United States and the rest of the world?

investmentwatchblog--2020-10-26--Are we going to witness the worst national emotional meltdown in U.S. history once this election is

Are we going to witness the worst national emotional meltdown in U.S. history once this election is over?

Right now we are experiencing the calm before the storm .
Many Biden supporters believe that a Trump victory would literally be the worst thing that could possibly happen to our country , but at the moment most of them are quite confident that Biden will win .
Likewise , many Trump supporters are absolutely convinced that we will plunge into a horrifying socialist abyss if Biden wins , but for now most of them are convinced that the polls are wrong and that Trump will pull out another victory in November .
So with just a little over a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that really care about politics are pacified because they believe that a positive outcome is right around the corner .
But soon that will change , and tens of millions of Americans will simultaneously melt down emotionally right in front of our eyes .
I think that just about everyone realizes that this national temper tantrum is coming .
It is just that most of those that deeply care about politics assume that it will happen to the other side .
At this point , even Facebook is preparing for the worst .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ to implement “ emergency measures ” that are usually reserved for the most “ at-risk ” countries… So what would those “ emergency measures ” look like ?
Well , that could potentially even include manipulating your news feed to alter what sort of content you are allowed to see… Of course Facebook has already been manipulating our news feeds for a very long time , but that is a topic for another article .
Personally , I absolutely detest all of the censorship that the big social media companies have been doing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they are preparing to go even further .
According to Facebook , these new “ emergency measures ” will be implemented if there is “ election-related violence ” … Considering the fact that we are seeing election-related violence almost constantly now , I would say that there is a pretty good chance that Facebook will actually proceed with these emergency measures .
Meanwhile , the Washington Post is also deeply concerned about what this election may do to our nation .
In a very long article that they just published , they discussed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that “ the wrong outcome will bring disaster ” … One week before Americans choose their path forward , the quadrennial crossroads reeks of despair .
In almost every generation , politicians pose certain elections as the most important of their time .
But the 2020 vote is taking place with the country in a historically dark mood — low on hope , running on spiritual empty , convinced that the wrong outcome will bring disaster .
“ I ’ ve never seen anything like it , ” said Frank Luntz , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ focus groups of undecided voters for seven presidential cycles .
“ Even the most balanced , mainstream people are talking about this election in language that is more caffeinated and cataclysmic than anything I ’ ve ever heard.
” Emotions were definitely running high in 2016 , but we have never seen anything quite like this .
Most Democrats believe that Trump and his supporters are deeply evil , and likewise most Republicans believe that Biden and his supporters are deeply evil .
And of course there are also many that are entirely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ evil .
When you have a nation that is this deeply divided , how is anyone ever going to be able to bring us together in unity ?
It has been said that a house divided with surely fall , and at this point our divisions have brought us to the verge of national collapse .
Here is more from the Washington Post… But now , the worry on the right that a Democratic win would plunge the nation into catastrophic socialism and the fear on the left that a Trump victory would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ a perilous moment — the idea that if the other side wins , we ’ re in for it , ” said Peter Stearns , a historian of emotions at George Mason University .
“ The two sides have come to view each other not as opponents , but as deeply evil , ” he said .
“ And that ’ s happening when trust in institutions has collapsed and each group is choosing not to live near each other .
It seems there ’ s no middle ground.
” But as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this article , for now both sides are relatively calm because they both believe that they are going to end up winning .
In 2016 , the big national polls were dead wrong and Trump pulled out a close victory when the mainstream media had assured everyone that it was inevitable that Hillary Clinton would win .
And once again this year there are indications that the big national polls may be flawed and that Trump may be doing significantly better than the mainstream media is telling us .
On the other hand @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the 50 percent mark in most national polls in 2016 , and Joe Biden has consistently been above that level in recent weeks .
Democratic operatives would have us believe that indicates that there are far fewer undecided voters this time around .
So I guess we will just have to wait until the real results start coming in to see who was right and who was wrong .
Because so many Americans are voting by mail , it is going to take a lot longer than usual to count all the votes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ states are likely to be very close .
If the results are close enough , it may take weeks before we have an official winner .
Once an official winner is finally declared , there will be tens of millions of Americans in deep emotional pain .
When all of those deeply hurting people start lashing out , you won ’ t want to be anywhere around .

I think that just about everyone realizes that this national temper tantrum is coming. It is just that most of those that deeply care about politics assume that it will happen to the other side.
At this point, even Facebook is preparing for the worst. In fact, they are getting ready to implement “emergency measures” that are usually reserved for the most “at-risk” countries…
As the U.S. braces for election-related unrest next month, Facebook executives are implementing emergency measures reserved for “at-risk” countries in a company-wide effort to bring down the online temperature. The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that the social media giant plans to limit the spread of viral content and lower the benchmark for suppressing potentially inflammatory posts using internal tools previously deployed in Sri Lanka and Myanmar.
So what would those “emergency measures” look like? Well, that could potentially even include manipulating your news feed to alter what sort of content you are allowed to see…
Facebook has a number of options it could take including “slowing the spread of viral content and lowering the bar for suppressing potentially inflammatory posts” and “tweaking the news feed to change what types of content users see,” the Wall Street Journal reported.
Of course Facebook has already been manipulating our news feeds for a very long time, but that is a topic for another article.
Personally, I absolutely detest all of the censorship that the big social media companies have been doing, and I am not surprised that they are preparing to go even further.
According to Facebook, these new “emergency measures” will be implemented if there is “election-related violence”…
However, the social media colossus only plans to put these restrictions in place in the event of election-related violence (something many others are fearful of and preparing for). However, during a staff meeting CEO Mark Zuckerberg said “a decisive victory from someone” could “be helpful for clarity and for not having violence or civil unrest after the election” which would reduce Facebook’s need to step in.
Considering the fact that we are seeing election-related violence almost constantly now, I would say that there is a pretty good chance that Facebook will actually proceed with these emergency measures.
Meanwhile, the Washington Post is also deeply concerned about what this election may do to our nation. In a very long article that they just published, they discussed the fact that both sides are convinced that “the wrong outcome will bring disaster”…
One week before Americans choose their path forward, the quadrennial crossroads reeks of despair. In almost every generation, politicians pose certain elections as the most important of their time. But the 2020 vote is taking place with the country in a historically dark mood — low on hope, running on spiritual empty, convinced that the wrong outcome will bring disaster. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” said Frank Luntz, a Republican political consultant who has been convening focus groups of undecided voters for seven presidential cycles. “Even the most balanced, mainstream people are talking about this election in language that is more caffeinated and cataclysmic than anything I’ve ever heard.”

investmentwatchblog--2020-10-26--Three things Americans are doing to prepare for election chaos, another coronavirus spike and deepen

Three things Americans are doing to prepare for election chaos, another coronavirus spike and deepening economic problems

Do you remember how crazy things got when the COVID-19 pandemic first hit the United States and widespread hoarding caused serious shortages of certain goods all over the United States ?
Well , it is starting to happen again .
As we approach the end of 2020 , a “ perfect storm ” of circumstances is causing the anxiety level of many Americans to go through the roof , and millions are preparing for the worst .
I have been hearing from so many people that are deeply concerned about what the outcome of this presidential election could mean for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them truly believe that we will witness tremendous civil unrest .
But as an article in the Washington Post recently noted , that isn ’ t the only thing we are potentially facing… Add a frightening pandemic , a burst of protest and anger about racial inequalities , and a sudden economic collapse , and the result is pervasive mistrust , a sense that the world ’ s most powerful nation can no longer come together in common cause .
“ We ’ re facing a difficult time , ” Barkun said .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is invisible , and that makes it more frightening .
There ’ s an increasingly widespread belief that authority — scientific , political , informational — is suspect .
It can be more comforting to believe in an unpleasant outcome than to embrace uncertainty.
” In modern times , there has never been a year quite like 2020 when we have had to face so many major challenges all at once , and now a lot of people out there are convinced that things could shortly go to an entirely new level .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the election could be even worse than what we saw earlier this year , others believe that the worst part of the COVID-19 pandemic lies in the weeks ahead , and our economic problems just seem to keep escalating .
With so much going wrong , many have decided that now is the time to prepare for worst case scenarios .
The following are three ways that Americans are preparing for the chaotic months that are in front of us… # 1 The stockpiling has already started If there are some things that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ really crazy out there , you may want to do it as soon as possible , because retailers around the country have already been reporting new shortages… As I write this article , the election is just over a week away .
If the outcome of the presidential election causes protests and rioting to erupt in cities all over the nation , that is likely to make the emerging shortages even worse .
# 2 Americans are buying lots and lots of guns We have never seen Americans purchase guns as fast as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
At one gun shop in Orange County , the owner literally has a hard time keeping any guns on the shelves at all… And I am being told that in some parts of the country ammunition is in very short supply right now .
We have already seen so much senseless violence all over the U.S. so far this year , and a lot of people believe that much more is on the way and they want to be ready to protect their families .
# 3 Concern about what is coming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is very strange to talk about a massive real estate boom during the midst of an economic depression , but that is precisely what we are witnessing .
In recent months we have seen an unprecedented mass exodus out of our major cities , and “ millions of house hunters ” have been driving up prices in desirable rural and suburban locations all across the nation… I certainly can ’ t blame anyone that wants to move .
If I was living in one of our major cities , I would be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into this year , I kept warning that we were heading into a “ perfect storm ” , and that is precisely what has happened .
It has just been one thing after another here in 2020 , and many believe that 2021 will be even more chaotic .
As for the immediate future , so much depends on the outcome of the election .
If a clear winner is declared shortly after Election Day , that may help to minimize the amount of chaos that we witness in the streets .
But @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are bitterly contested for weeks , things could get out of hand very rapidly .
And no matter which side ends up winning in that sort of a scenario , there are going to be millions upon millions of people on the other side that will feel like the election was stolen from them .
There are countless numbers of people out there that will never accept a Trump victory under any circumstances , and there are countless numbers of others that will never accept Joe Biden as president .
I feel like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ really bad chapter in American history , and at this point it is going to take some sort of a miracle to avoid it .

With so much going wrong, many have decided that now is the time to prepare for worst case scenarios. The following are three ways that Americans are preparing for the chaotic months that are in front of us…
#1 The stockpiling has already started
If there are some things that you want to purchase before things get really crazy out there, you may want to do it as soon as possible, because retailers around the country have already been reporting new shortages…
Shoppers and retailers are reporting that certain items are already running low, including liquid hand soap, disinfecting wipes and canning jars (especially lids). Some products have been difficult to find ever since the first wave. But a wintery second wave could trigger new shortages, as Americans spend even more time indoors. In a panel discussion with doctors from Harvard Medical School in September, White House adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci said Americans should prepare to “hunker down to get through this fall and winter.”
As I write this article, the election is just over a week away. If the outcome of the presidential election causes protests and rioting to erupt in cities all over the nation, that is likely to make the emerging shortages even worse.
#2 Americans are buying lots and lots of guns
We have never seen Americans purchase guns as fast as they have been buying them this year. At one gun shop in Orange County, the owner literally has a hard time keeping any guns on the shelves at all…
At Ade’s Gun Shop in Orange County, owner Emily Atkinson can’t keep up with demand – she’s seeing a run on guns during this pandemic, similar to the run on toilet paper. “We would put 20 guns out and they would be sold in three hours,” Atkinson said. “We were doing in two weeks what we would do in a quarter.”
And I am being told that in some parts of the country ammunition is in very short supply right now. We have already seen so much senseless violence all over the U.S. so far this year, and a lot of people believe that much more is on the way and they want to be ready to protect their families.

#3 Concern about what is coming has fueled a crazy real estate boom
It is very strange to talk about a massive real estate boom during the midst of an economic depression, but that is precisely what we are witnessing.
In recent months we have seen an unprecedented mass exodus out of our major cities, and “millions of house hunters” have been driving up prices in desirable rural and suburban locations all across the nation…
The COVID-19 pandemic, the loss of millions of jobs, a weaker economy—none of it stopped millions of house hunters from flocking to Zillow, Redfin, and other online platforms to browse, plan their move, and, in many cases, purchase their first home. Home prices have been climbing steadily over the past few months, and industry players are projecting they are likely to peak in some markets this fall, causing a tempering of the market driven by a decline in supply and a prolonged economic recovery.
I certainly can’t blame anyone that wants to move. If I was living in one of our major cities, I would be looking to get out too.
Coming into this year, I kept warning that we were heading into a “perfect storm”, and that is precisely what has happened. It has just been one thing after another here in 2020, and many believe that 2021 will be even more chaotic.
As for the immediate future, so much depends on the outcome of the election.
If a clear winner is declared shortly after Election Day, that may help to minimize the amount of chaos that we witness in the streets.
But if the results are very close and are bitterly contested for weeks, things could get out of hand very rapidly. And no matter which side ends up winning in that sort of a scenario, there are going to be millions upon millions of people on the other side that will feel like the election was stolen from them.
There are countless numbers of people out there that will never accept a Trump victory under any circumstances, and there are countless numbers of others that will never accept Joe Biden as president.
I feel like we are on the precipice of a really bad chapter in American history, and at this point it is going to take some sort of a miracle to avoid it.


investmentwatchblog--2020-10-27--They are going to go all-out in a desperate attempt to try to stop Trump from declaring victory

Can you think of any other time in the history of the United States when measures have been taken in advance to try to prevent a presidential candidate from declaring victory on the night of the election ?
It is difficult to believe that this is actually happening , and it is yet more evidence of how badly our system has deteriorated .
Of course President Trump may decide to declare victory anyway if he has a significant lead on election night , but any such declaration will immediately be branded “ illegitimate ” by the mainstream media , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the left .
For months , pundits on the left have been trying to convince us that President Trump may have a lead initially but that Joe Biden will surely be victorious once all of the mail-in ballots are finally counted .
They are going to be pushing that narrative no matter how large Trump ’ s lead is , and they are absolutely determined to squelch any talk that Trump has officially won .
For example , on Monday Twitter announced that it will be “ pre-bunking ” election misinformation .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that there may be delays in full election results ” and that there may be “ misleading information ” about mail-in votes… Twitter said Monday it would take the proactive step of alerting its users to potential misinformation in preparation for unverified claims about the November 3 US election .
The short messaging service said it would place notices at the top of user feeds warning that there may be delays in full election results and that people might see “ misleading information ” about voting by mail .
Do you think those @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course not .
Their goal is to keep President Trump and other Republicans from declaring “ premature ” victories , and Twitter has stated that no such claims will be allowed until races are “ authoritatively called ” … So exactly who will they be relying on to “ authoritatively ” declare that races have been won or lost ?
In 2000 , the Associated Press called Florida for Al Gore very early , and if George W. Bush had not contested that result he never would have been the president of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they may try to call some states for Biden based on assumptions about “ uncounted mail-in ballots ” even though Trump is leading in the actual vote count .
Personally , I am in favor of not declaring a winner in each state until it is mathematically impossible for the other candidate to catch up , but that is just me .
Other social media companies are also preparing for contested election results .
As I discussed yesterday , Facebook has announced that they are ready to implement “ emergency measures ” that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at-risk ” countries .
They will not be allowing any “ premature ” declarations of victory either , although I have a feeling that their standards will not be applied equally to both parties .
While the big social media companies work hard to try to control the narrative , activists on the left will be storming D.C. in order to “ make sure Trump leaves the White House ” … Even if Trump gets the votes that he needs to win , these protesters have absolutely no intention of recognizing the result @ @ @ @ @ @ @ planning an “ uprising ” that will go “ from election night on ” … “ On Election Day , when you ’ re done voting , doing election protection , or getting out the vote , come join us at Black Lives Matter Plaza .
We ’ re inviting everybody who agrees with these organizing principles to work together to make this uprising happen .
We ’ re going to make sure Trump leaves .
From election night on , as the situation changes and evolves we all work together to make @ @ @ @ @ @ @ supporters on the webpage .
The group also tells its followers that if they are not in DC , “ Organize in your community !
Find out where the votes will be counted where you live .
Make a plan with others to get there and stay until all the votes are counted .
And come up with a plan to create serious disruption if Trump really tries to steal the election !
” Do you remember all of the people that marched and held signs that said “ not my president ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , that was nothing compared to what we will witness if Trump wins again .
As I warned yesterday , we could be on the verge of the biggest emotional meltdown in U.S. history .
At this point , so many Americans are concerned about rioting and violence after the election that it has forced the mainstream media to do stories about it .
For example , the following comes from a USA Today article entitled “ Americans worried about Election Day violence and chaos are buying guns and toilet paper ” … @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right out of one of my articles .
This is how bad things have gotten .
We are on the verge of widespread civil unrest following a presidential election , and nobody has any idea how to stop it from happening .
If chaos does erupt in our streets in November , I would strongly advise avoiding it , because it is likely to get really , really ugly .

Can you think of any other time in the history of the United States when measures have been taken in advance to try to prevent a presidential candidate from declaring victory on the night of the election? It is difficult to believe that this is actually happening, and it is yet more evidence of how badly our system has deteriorated. Of course President Trump may decide to declare victory anyway if he has a significant lead on election night, but any such declaration will immediately be branded “illegitimate” by the mainstream media, the big tech companies and everyone else on the left.
For months, pundits on the left have been trying to convince us that President Trump may have a lead initially but that Joe Biden will surely be victorious once all of the mail-in ballots are finally counted. They are going to be pushing that narrative no matter how large Trump’s lead is, and they are absolutely determined to squelch any talk that Trump has officially won.
For example, on Monday Twitter announced that it will be “pre-bunking” election misinformation. In particular, Twitter will be “warning that there may be delays in full election results” and that there may be “misleading information” about mail-in votes…
Twitter said Monday it would take the proactive step of alerting its users to potential misinformation in preparation for unverified claims about the November 3 US election. The short messaging service said it would place notices at the top of user feeds warning that there may be delays in full election results and that people might see “misleading information” about voting by mail.
Do you think those notices are directed at Democrats?
Of course not.
Their goal is to keep President Trump and other Republicans from declaring “premature” victories, and Twitter has stated that no such claims will be allowed until races are “authoritatively called”…
It has also said candidates for office may not claim an election win before it is “authoritatively called” and that premature claims would be labeled with a link to the platform’s election page.
So exactly who will they be relying on to “authoritatively” declare that races have been won or lost?
The ultra-liberal Associated Press?
In 2000, the Associated Press called Florida for Al Gore very early, and if George W. Bush had not contested that result he never would have been the president of the United States.
Knowing the AP, they may try to call some states for Biden based on assumptions about “uncounted mail-in ballots” even though Trump is leading in the actual vote count.

While the big social media companies work hard to try to control the narrative, activists on the left will be storming D.C. in order to “make sure Trump leaves the White House”…
Ringleaders of protesters are organizing an effort to “make sure Trump leaves the White House” by any means necessary after the Nov. 3 election, according to website posts from the group Shut Down DC and their allies.
Even if Trump gets the votes that he needs to win, these protesters have absolutely no intention of recognizing the result as legitimate.
Instead, they are planning an “uprising” that will go “from election night on”…
“On Election Day, when you’re done voting, doing election protection, or getting out the vote, come join us at Black Lives Matter Plaza. We’re inviting everybody who agrees with these organizing principles to work together to make this uprising happen. We’re going to make sure Trump leaves. From election night on, as the situation changes and evolves we all work together to make that happen,” they tell their supporters on the webpage.

Make a plan with others to get there and stay until all the votes are counted. And come up with a plan to create serious disruption if Trump really tries to steal the election!”
Do you remember all of the people that marched and held signs that said “not my president” after the election of 2016?
Well, that was nothing compared to what we will witness if Trump wins again. As I warned yesterday, we could be on the verge of the biggest emotional meltdown in U.S. history.
At this point, so many Americans are concerned about rioting and violence after the election that it has forced the mainstream media to do stories about it. For example, the following comes from a USA Today article entitled “Americans worried about Election Day violence and chaos are buying guns and toilet paper”…
Tabitha Converse is quietly preparing for Election Day and the weeks beyond by stocking her basement pantry with canned goods, toilet paper and other basic supplies. She even persuaded her husband to buy a hunting rifle, just in case. Like millions of Americans, Converse, 43, fears the potential for violence that experts say may accompany this year’s presidential election. A mother of two who works as a dental hygienist, Converse is trying not to worry too much, but with a pandemic, civil rights protests and raging wildfires piled atop the election’s boiling-hot rhetoric, well, who knows what might happen?
That sounds like it could have come right out of one of my articles.
This is how bad things have gotten. We are on the verge of widespread civil unrest following a presidential election, and nobody has any idea how to stop it from happening.

In a test for Christian Klein, who became sole chief executive officer in April, the pandemic will delay SAP’s goals for cloud revenue, overall sales and operating profit by one or two years, especially in hard-hit industries such as business travel, the Walldorf, Germany-based company said in a statement on Sunday.

SAP said it expects limited growth and margin improvement over the next two years, and moved expectations to meet its 2023 strategy plan out to 2025. Klein said on a call Monday he expects a conservative recovery into the first half of next year.

investmentwatchblog--2020-10-27--Why I’m not worried about a resurgence of inflation

TL/DR : Despite massive fiscal stimulus packages and seemingly never-ending quantitative easing programs , I don ’ t believe we ’ re headed towards a world of out-of-control inflation .
Why ?
The prospect of permanent economic scarring in certain sectors due to extended lockdowns coupled with rapid technological adoption are two factors that are likely to keep price pressures low .
Investors seem quite concerned about rising inflation risk , which is likely supporting the strong bid for inflation-hedging assets like gold and bitcoin year to date .
Adding fuel to the fire , top money managers , like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in financial media lately about the risk of a high-inflation regime down the road .
A high-inflation regime would be a remarkable departure from the past decade , where inflation was relatively tame even despite ultra-low interest rates and the introduction of unconventional monetary policy tools , like quantitative easing ( see chart here : ibb.co/Dt8nVFC ) .
Similar to what was observed over the past cycle , I don ’ t see recent policy action leading to sky-high inflation in the future .
• First , it ’ s important to note @ @ @ @ @ @ @ response to a weak economic outlook .
Direct income assistance ( i.e .
the CARES Act ) is meant to help offset lost wages due to extended lockdowns and business closures .
Those who believe inflation is going to materially rise would argue that the government built a “ bridge too far ” – though so far the pandemic has outlasted the duration of U.S. stimulus measures .

It is well studied that e-commerce is a deflationary force ( read more here : www.nber.org/papers/w24649 ) .
