Regardless of whether Biden or Trump wins the White House anytime soon, the Senate will (very likely) remain Republican with the House staying Democratic...

The firm now only got clobbered a few weeks back on an after hours guidance cut, but then proceeded to get sold down another thirty points or so, eviscerating many dip-buyers in the process--You can see as much on the...

And So it Goes
Regardless of what transpires over the next thirty-six hours or so, the sun will still rise on Wednesday, November 4th, 2020. It is rather easy, especially in today's frenetic social media plus 24/7 news cocktail of paranoia, to attach the future of civilization to any given election.

If a Netflix Falls in the Forest
As we discussed in the full recap for Members last evening, as well as the brief video here, the total lack of dip-buying interest in Netflix since its earnings gap down last week seems to continue to go virtually unnoticed by the market.

With the CEOs of FB GOOGL and TWTR getting grilled today on Capitol Hill regarding the variety of exclusions they enjoy (Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, especially), the current mega cap landscape at least somewhat rhymes with the railroad trusts in this country over a century ago.
