Election party, then hangover, grade B-

Stocks boom higher on election news, then give half of that back during the next week. I haven’t been doing much trading.

Here are some ETFs year-to date:

SLV silver 40.7%
GLD gold 23.8%

SPY SP500 23.2%
QQQ Nasdaq 100 21.3%
IWM Russell 2000 13.8%

EEM emerging mkt 6.8%
TLT US20 yr -8.9%

My trading account up around 25% for calendar 2024. I’ll take it. I am busier until Christmas, so will have less time for trading. Overall plan remains, add to longs on significant dips, keep a healthy cash reserve.

This is the month of Thanksgiving. I am grateful for all my blessings, especially my friends and family, and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Off topic: One new thing for me is learning guitar, I’ll post my first Christian song on YouTube. Link
