Unload Your Material Before the Election

[Dr. Cadmium]

I'm unloading all or most of my material before the election. Regardless of what party wins, I predict it's going to be a mess like in 2000.

I'm selling everything a couple of weeks before, and putting some cash aside to buy the dips in the market.

I want to get rid of all my low value stuff maybe keep copper and brass but with the bad prices it is all low value lol... definitely should get rid of my dirty alum, dirty brass and dirty stainless... low grade boards Christmas lights..

Someone asked me what my plans were for the fall, it took a few minutes to realise she meant autumn, not TEOTWAWKI.

It may be a good time to play the market; my plans are being fully prepared.

I just bought some of the silver ETF (Ticker: SLV) in the premarket session Tuesday. Just buying as a trade. Paid about $22.55ish per share.

I picked up another SLV leap yesterday, dated Jan 2023.

I'm happy that my prediction was wrong, at least so far anyway.

I had the same thought as you... I didn't end up dumping anything... but now I am considering it.... but in exchange for what?
Food? Ammo? I feel like the real tell will be in December/January.

I may be wrong in doing this but I've kept most of my money in hard assets, this puts me in a bind if an unexpected expense pops up.

This election season isn't totally over (regardless of what you think about the voting accuracy). It will certainly be interesting to see the next couple months in markets.
