I can understand how a rigorous risk analysis of all the factors and potentials involved would indicate a higher chance of Trump usurping the presidency after a legitimate election loss, than Trump fudging the jobs report.
Yep. Both on the incentives and the mechanisms available.

Down a little more than that, but I can't tell for sure because I didn't mark the 2/19 high. I only save monthly snapshots. I'm down 4.2% from my peak month-end, which was 12/31.
So I finally checked, I’m actually up 12.6% over my peak (12/31 too).

Nothing intentional, though I did put a little into RBGLY (Lysol) in March. They normally trade at $17, but for some reason had dropped to $12 in March. I figured their revenues were going to be through the roof, so why not?) they are trading at $17 again, so that was nice but I didn’t put much in. Mostly the increase was because 12 months ago I shifted to a more aggressive mix and for whatever reason, they’ve recovered exceptionally well since my 12 month low on 3/31.

Lets see...
The Washington Post, a rag known for consistently publishing fake news, posts a tweet before the jobs report had even come out claiming the unemployment rate was 20%. Then the jobs report comes out and the unemployment rate actually dropped, and was just over 13%. New jobs bounced higher than even the most optimistic predictions, the Washington Post quickly removes the tweet, then publishes a story about how the report was wrong and the unemployment rate was actually ....20%..
Bwahahahaaaaaaaaaa
Want to buy a bridge in London???

Wow, some good timing on purchases or rebalancing?
Jumping on VDE was a decent move. I could’ve DCA’d a bit more but still, it’s up nicely.
I also bought a little American Airlines back when my trader friends said to avoid it. I’ve seen a 142% return so far. Bought it at $8.71 a share. Wish I had bought more!
Overall, I’m up about 10% YTD. Could’ve been more but I still have a good chunk of cash on the sidelines since I didn’t expect the initial rebound to stick.

I heard AA just went to 75% of its old schedule.
Anecdotally, a friend flew LGA-ORD on them Friday and said the plane was 75-80% full. LGA was quiet but ORD busy and half the people not wearing masks.
Incubator.

Guy texted me just a few minutes ago, on his way back:
Plane taking off shortly. Based on lack of consistent mask wearing, etc., it will be a while before we fly again. Son will go back to Michigan via car.

A friend just flew Chicago - LAX on United. She said that the plane was about 70% full, all middle seats (except for her row and one other LOL ) were empty.
United requires masks, and if you did not have one, they gave you one. Also were handing out sanitize wipes if you wanted to wipe your seat, tray etc.
Snack was given out in a sealed plastic bag - water bottle, nuts, napkin. No meal service was to be given.

How are your investments looking? I’m only down 3.6% from my high.
How is that looking today?
The bill just came in for all the protesting. The hangover i predicted is upon us.

If you compare the bill to the price of racism, I think the bill was justified.
