USa today: it's not Orwell or Huxley, it's Bernays on display
Reply
Early Life, “Uncle Sigi” and first experiences in Public Relations
Edward Bernays was born in 1891 in Vienna, Austria, but emigrated at the age of two with his family to New York, USA. He was a nephew of the famous neurologist and founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud.
Bernays finished High School at the age of 16 and started to study agriculture at the Cornell University to placate his father. After getting his degree in 1912, Bernays abandoned farm products and found work editing a medical review. He continued to work as a journalist for three years, until he switched sides and became a press-agent.
Influenced by his famous uncle Sigmund Freud, to whom he often referred to as “uncle Sigi”, Bernays developed an interest in the human psych and the functions of decision making. Freud had taught Bernays the importance of group psychology when influencing humans. Bernays, interested in advertising and propaganda, understood at an early age that the notions, longings, questions and unconscious desires of human beings have to be known, shaped and led in order to influence them accordingly.

Is Joe Biden Good or Bad for the Dollar?
the genius of the democrats, another great move the day before the election.....ya thinks dat this make give Trump and the republicans a few more votes.......????
And yes, Michigan is an important 'swing state'.
__________________________________________________
Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer has moved her state one step closer to a true Orwellian paradise, asking her citizens to surrender their privacy every time they want a cheeseburger and a coke at their local diner.
Effective this week, diners in Michigan are now going to be required to produce their full name and contact information simply for wanting to eat out at a restaurant or bar.
A new release from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services said: “Like many other businesses in Michigan, bars and restaurants will also be required to take names and contact information to support effective contact tracing if necessary.”
Violating the order could result in a $1,000 fine, a misdemeanor, and potentially imprisonment, the DHS said: “Violations are punishable by a civil fine up to $1,000 and may also be treated as a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for not more than six months or a fine of not more than $200, or both. In addition, failure to comply with orders may violate a business or professional’s licensure requirements or present a workplace safety violation.”

Imho. Y€$ a Biden victory should be good for $ . Bigger deficits ultimately will lead to higher rates and a higher $.

Is Joe Biden Good or Bad for the Dollar?
'Historians of the future, pan-frying sowbugs over their campfires, will recollect in wonder and nausea the election of 2020 and the attempted controlled demolition of the USA by the Woke Rebellion and its incongruous avatar, Joe Biden, the Holy Ghost of Grift and Gaslight. All the forces of empire were arrayed in his support, as behind some sacred effigy of an obscure saint in a church processional, and yet all the voting public saw was a pitiful figure ranting at an audience of cars, an old dog barking pointlessly in a parking lot in the gathering darkness.'

Debt-to-GDP
S&P Global Ratings sees global debt, as a percentage of GDP, swelling to a record 265% this year, and insolvencies and defaults rising to levels not seen since the 2009 crisis. A near-term crisis, though, is unlikely given the expected economic recovery, a COVID-19 vaccine by mid-2021, favorable financing conditions, and sovereign, corporate, and household spending and borrowing behaviors. "The heavier corporate debt will delay the recovery of credit metrics beyond 2022 for the hardest-hit sectors (such as airlines, leisure, and oil and gas)," according to the report.

Joe Biden, whose lead is widening in the polls, is up on Wall Street, too. Many investment strategists suggest that his presidency could be a blessing for the economy and the stock market.
Investment strategists at Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Barclays all said this week that a strong victory by Biden would be good for markets because it would reduce uncertainty and ensure more coronavirus relief spending next year.

Personal Observations
I don't think traders will have big ideas ahead of National elections tomorrow in the U.S. The election process is a mess due to adjustments made due to the Coronavirus. Its anyone's guess when the final outcome will be known. Typically, the outcome of the vote is known before Wednesday. This time the process could be slowed significantly due to the reversion to paper ballots submitted by mail. If the results end up in the courts, It could be a good while (days, weeks?) until the final results are known.
Equity markets don't seem to care who wins. They are making a positive bet on shares, figuring no matter who wins that an economic stimulus package is likely in the next month or so. In pre-market trade, U.S. equities are up.
In Brexit talks, markets are reacting to word that progress is being made in negotiations and that some sort of agreement will be reached by mid-month. EURGBP is higher.
The USDCAD is lower and the Aussie is up. WTI is higher.

Intresting vignette about Trump
Reply
I saw a documentary of Trump. His father sent him to a military academy which he finished quite well.
When asked what was the most important lesson he got in that school he said: "I learned that the only way to win is to TRAMP."
That is exactly what he did all his life. So far he was rather successful.

in general, the markets waiting to results much more than they wait to know who is to be the president.
as once you have results you can apply a theme, so far there is no theme to apply in time frame longer than 12hrs without rechecking the theme R/R ratio.

Here, in Israel, (people are very involved in the U.S. Elections, everyone has wish and an opinion, mostly for Trump) there is a hot debate:
Which side is going to be more violent. The Left reacting to Trump win or the Right reacting to Biden win.
