seeing as how the election was decided in a day, and now the market is charging, can you get out of your cds, or are you going to keep them for now?
 
Keeping my investments for now.
 
If anyone wants to look back at the highest performing stocks in 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 to potentially correlate companies that maybe benefited from the trump administration, you can look at the graphs below. Do your own research to see if there were mergers, acquisitions, or what contributed to their performance. The performance may be totally unrelated to what may happen in the next four years, but maybe some will find this interesting to dig into. Also remember that covid took place during 2020 altering a lot of company financials negatively or positively.

I’m parked for a bit. Feds are planning on cutting interest rates again and don’t know what’s gonna happen in next 2 months of lame duck term. 6-11 month position.

Still have quite a bit of regular market exposure. Up almost $20k $30k this week.

China Announces a Ban on Rare Minerals to the U.S.​


China produces nearly all the world’s supply of critical minerals needed to make advanced technologies such as semiconductors. Beijing has been tightening its grip on the materials to retaliate for clampdowns on American technology exports to China over the past two years.

China created a legal framework last year for controlling exports of gallium and germanium, which are used in semiconductors, and on Sept. 15 China added antimony, which is used in military explosives. In October, China began requiring its exporters of rare earth metals, used in everything from advanced semiconductors to smart bombs, to disclose, step by step, how the minerals would be used in Western supply chains.

The Chinese ban on super hard mineral exports could provoke particular unhappiness in America’s national security community. That ban appeared to be aimed at Chinese exports of tungsten, which is vital for making armor-piercing bullets and shells, said Oliver Friesen, the chief executive of Guardian Metal Resources, a London company that is planning to mine tungsten in Nevada.
 
My investments have done well the last couple days.

My ethereum has gone up too. Im now up $52. I've been down like $150 for 2.or 3 years .
 
Inflation inching back up and the fed trying to pump the economy via rate cuts. Methinks they were a little premature on the cuts this last year and now signaling it.

Yeah, rough week. Was taking to a buddy of mine and he said he was down somewhere near $80k. He had a lot of stuff in AI stocks and was taking big gains a couple weeks back. Lost it all plus some.
