A good day to have lots of things in your portfolio.Even "boring" stocks that have nothing to do with vaccines are going bonkers today -- and were especially rolling shortly after open. Names like KO, RTX, HON, O, MA, SBUX, and so on. Utilities up. Banks up. Oil up. Up, up, up.I thought about taking some profits, decided against it, but then did decide to do a little selling and might do a little more. I'm not a trader, I'm a reluctant seller who prefers a buy-and-holdish style, but some of these run-ups are pretty inexplicable.
Except tech down on the notion that people won't be forced to stay at home within the foreseeable future, and the S&P500 up by less than half a percent. The Dow had a good day, but not so much the broader market.
Oh, there were some others that went way down, mostly from industries that had gained big during the coronavirus: CLX, HD, LOW, GIS, TGT, PG, etc. It was an interesting, kind of bizarro day for Mr. Market.
OK Scoopvestors, so what are your top picks for 2021?
Last week there was a local story. They interviewed a Yale Economic Professor who thought we were going to enter a "Roaring 20's minus the flapper girls post Coronavirus". There are a lot of similarities per his analysis. Spanish Flu & WWI among others.
My portfolio is now fully invested in two stocks : GMGI (global online gambling infrastructure/software) and SHMP (clean natural seafood technology and processes). Both had great runups late in the year and gaining volume. Fingers crossed.
Quick! Someone tell me where to invest to maximize the next 2 years!
Pot stocks. And reverse ETFs.
You think the market is gonna go down? Everything I've seen says Kamala was hand-picked by wall street and they love Biden too.Sure, maybe the general market goes down a bit, but if they really feared biden/harris, they wouldn't have supported their candidacy. There's money to be made
1) I'm expecting a big down market today on news of what happened in Georgia. As much as 10 percent down. But it will be short lived and rebound fairly quickly as the world becomes accustomed to the new normal in government.
It's a half hour before the market opens and here are my (probably wrong) thoughts:1) I'm expecting a big down market today on news of what happened in Georgia. As much as 10 percent down. But it will be short lived and rebound fairly quickly as the world becomes accustomed to the new normal in government.2) The Kamala thing is interesting. I said the same thing about Hillary Clinton more than four years ago. The Goldman Sacs money paid to Hillary was an investment in assuring she didn't go too far off the ranch. If true, same for Kamala.3) The "real" government is on "K" Street in Washington. The lobbyists for the real estate agents, bankers, gun makers, credit unions, manufacturers, laborers etc. We may have changed stripes in Congress and on Pennsylvania Avenue, but we didn't on K Street. These guys are protecting economic interests, not social interests.4) I'm not sure I'd be owning oil company stocks right now, or most utilities. Energy will be a volatile investment for years to come.

This does not appear to be panning out.
Not so far.
In the very immediate short term, maybe not, but we will see how progressive an agenda is pushed by Dems controlling House, Senate, and WH
I actually think this is a red herring. There is the potential for a Senate that will not be obstructionist and bring legislation to the floor for votes. However, it cannot pass unless every democrat signs on or some moderate R's move. Manchin, Snow, Murkowski, a few others just gained a lot of power.
