Stock Market and Presidents illiness

What Trump contracting COVID-19 means for the market, the election and America

While of course no president has ever been infected by the coronavirus, nor has any been potentially this sick a month before the election, our nation has endured all manner of Presidential maladies—and worse—and survived, nay thrived.

They always use fear tactics to get you to click the article. The market may be down since the day before but it's right close to where it was 5 days ago. We are seeing some crazy, unjustified, highs so I would consider right now more normal... actually still high... not down.

If he passes he might lose the election, when he comes back and is ready to rumble then we can put this country back to work.

The stock market already has uncertainty built because of the virus. Historically the market does better under Democratic Presidents.

That explains why so many billionaires are Dems I suppose. The working man is starting to figure that out.

Are you sure this is not the second coming. Some folks seem to believe it.

No my bitter little friend, this is the first coming, of a great President.

I like the opening of that article, "of course no president has ever been infected by coronavirus."
All I need to know about where this article is going, and is written for the uninformed.

I posted this that historical the markets do not respond to previous presidents problems. In response to red gulley concern that the market would go down pretty quick because of Trump and the virus. In that post Caustic shut me out after posting some statements that he did not like. This market has been kept up by the federal reserve. Also after the tax break most stock buyers were the companies themselves buying back their stock. The stimulus money companies received could not be used to buy back stock. I thought everyone would benefit from reading the yahoo article.

Got any oil company stock.

I found the article interesting and not very political. Most of the facts that I quickly checked were right. I am not panicking.

Nope. Oil is dead. There is a major revamp that has to take place in that industry and it's a total crap shoot on who will come out the other side of it.
