We will see what happens - but given nvidias growth and how heavy they are now weighted I’m skeptical there will be any enforcement until well after the elections. Neither party wants to look “bad for the economy”, even if the people harmed isn’t of significant size.

You mean the election that happens in less than 12 hours? Yes, enforcement will probably happen after that.

  I mean voting ends in 12 hours except for all the situations where it doesn't. The presidential election ends in December and all your local ones won't be certified today and in the event of a run-off or re-count voting also won't end today.

>> Neither party wants to look “bad for the economy You mean like the horrific jobs numbers that came out that nobody is covering either? Like bad like that??

  Nobody is a a bit of an exaggeration. Anyone who has been following finance noticed many major US news outlets covering when the job numbers dropped [0]. Yes it was really only covered for a day because the election hype is a bigger story. Why did nobody talk about the floods in Nepal or mass suicides in Sudan? Clearly we should all be talking about jobs and the US economy!

  BLS numbers look pretty boring; Oct was +12000; nothing extreme either way. Am I missing something?

    Usually it is 10x that in a month. AIUI there were strikes and other factors affecting the numbers, but not necessarily indicating significant harm to the economy/jobs long term.

  there was nothing horrific about the jobs report. It was bad news, but we get bad news everyday.

    It wasn't even bad news, or at least the markets didn't think so -- they were up slightly. It was basically the expected effect of the two hurricanes on October and Boeing strike.

  I saw it in several business sections. Is that the the "nobody covering it" part? The numbers a likely due to several one-off occurrences that aren't like to hit semi-perfect status again for a while. No reason given the numbers that it's not a fluke with the history of the previous months.

    It's ok, inflation is only going to be transitory.
