"Notwithstanding the best efforts of our host, partisan politics seems to always intrude on this board."

True, and we all must continue to remain vigilant.


Ken Fisher always says "that you should ignore politics in your investing." I read their weekly market summary and whenever something like that comes up in the news, they always lead off with that admonishment.

For the 30 years I have been reading him I could not tell which party he favored. That's how tightly he kept it in check. I weakly suspected it was the Democrats, since he & his company is in California.


. But if you break it down into "politics is justifiably more relevant to investing than usual"

It has been exacerbated by the mainstream news media drumming up emotions to get eyeballs.

Nowadays with the internet & google/tiktoc/youtube, people can become (in their minds) an instant expert in a topic they have never heard of before -- such as tariffs, infectious diseases, riots, war & weapons, etc.
