15 Predictions For After The Election

I looked into a crystal ball that I found hiking in an enchanted forest yesterday and now I’ve got predictions for you.

I predict that:

1. Someone will eventually be declared winner in the election. The other side will still be pissed.
2. Politicians will warn people on their side that they should be really worried about what the politicians the people on the other side are doing.
3. Courts will decide some of the votes count and that some of the votes don’t count and the mainstream news will do a lot of coverage about that. Both sides will be pissed about some of the rulings.
4. The Federal Government will debate and pass some spending bills that includes lots of loopholes, subsidies, protections and stimulus for giant corporations and even will again include a little bit of something for people suffering from the pandemic.
5. The politicians will to say that something should be done about: health care, wealth gaps, education, war, abortion.
6. And they’ll pass some laws and/or tax reform that they will claim are supposed address those things but in reality are laws and/or tax bills that were written by corporate lobbyists and their attorneys and they will do little to nothing to change anything except to improve the economic fortunes of the giant corporations who wrote the laws/tax reform.
7. The cycle of tensions and violence and terrorism and drone bombings and propaganda and corruption will continue in the Middle East and in much of the rest of the world.
8. The Fed’s going to continue to do whatever the giant banks want it do which will include buying bank assets and debts at whatever price the banks say the Fed should buy them at.
9. Facebook and Twitter and the other social networks will spend money and create some new policies to combat the brainwashing that is happening on their networks but they won’t really stop it and people will continue to brainwash themselves on social media.
10. You’re going to work, invest, trade, read, watch TV, consume, drink, eat and do things a lot like you’ve always done.
11. I’m going to continue to focus on finding the next Great Revolutionary Trends, including The Space Revolution which will accelerate and trillions of dollars will pour into the space industry in the next five years to ten years.
12. The markets will rally, crash, bubble, stagnate and rotate but not necessarily in that order.
13. The US will be okay.
14. You’re going to be okay.
15. This song from the Talking Heads will still be cool.
    

Anybody want to bet against any of the above? Let me know. I’ll see you for this week’s Live Q&A Chat tomorrow morning (Wednesday) at 11am ET.
