    Put a bet on Trump winning if you're sure, 80% profit or thereabouts I think.

    Having been handsomely rewarded over many years through being overweight in the USA I decided that the combination of Trump and Covid was the disaster waiting to happen and rejigged my portfolio to be underweight in USA. As it soared away despite The Donald. I won't be changing anything at this time.
