presidential election

Back at the start of the year, when the market was plunging every day and I had the time and mental energy to devote myself to topics besides charts, I wrote this post called My Presidential Election Prediction. The core thesis was, "Status Quo means Hillary. Financial Mayhem means Bernie. Fear means Trump."
