I like the look of this and seems very cheap at $343,000. :)

If you want to see how low prices can get look what happened in Chicago and around Boston, I'm not sure I'd invest in a town built on entertainment just when the economy and socialising in general might be decimated. With that and Vegas looking like the water table will dry up in the next decade there could be tumbleweed blowing down the strip soon.

Big firm on Hillary last couple of days, I imagine the Clintons wield a lot of power in the Democrat party, who's better for Trump though Biden or Hillary, I'd probably say Hillary

Ukraine have released the transcript & recorded call of Joe Biden proving he bribed the Ukraine Goverment into the sacking of the Attorney General investigating the firm Joe's son worked for. What was it called.... quid pro quo? Joe tried to explain this away with "the guy was corrupt" another blatant Joe lie, surely he stands very little chance, hes gonna be replaced imo.

source?

The only thing I've found is

"The recordings don't appear to contain anything that would incriminate Biden or his son and were seen by some observers as a political effort to help U.S. President Donald Trump's reelection bid."
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... Biden.html

and that's the daily mail!don't think I want to know which dark corners you're getting your info from. Let's stick to substantive claims shall we? Here and everywhere. Read the transcript! :lol:

Lots of polls given Biden the lead, but seemingly not reflected in the market. Or the polls are biased or inaccurately based?

Watched this earlier today, old video but there was a part in there which was pretty interesting, the states that China aimed their Tariffs at.

Polls reflecting that a fair few swing voters have lost their jobs with Trump at the wheel, and will vote for a change on that basis....when asked now.

Market reflecting there's a belief in that Corona will die down, that the (job) market will recover before the election, and/or that Trump will be successful in shifting the blame for the botched job fighting Corona onto China, Europe, US governors, democrats, blacks, or anyone else in the line of sight.

Would be my guess...

I didn't follow, it except from a long distance.... In the 2019 Australian Federal Election I believe the polls had labour in easy peasy.... so did the Betfair odds in that market (so that's different)... turned out The coalition won....

Not sure if that means anything... in regards to polls meaning anything that is...

I'm curious, do any of you guys record long term markets like this? Not so sure screen capture is all that practical or possible...

From what I read, alot of his supporters criticize him for doing nothing, rather than using the force to stop the violence. Before the protests, was at 2.10. Rose to 2.34, got back at 2.24 after he made a speech at the white house, and drifted again when the protests intensified in democrat cities. Last night was at 2.4something.
