Last month I wrote, "October 2020 may have been a turning point ... [signaling] the end of the print & pump scheme by the Federal Reserve." Nothing could have been further from the truth. In fact, November saw rallies in every asset class except gold with Bitcoin leading the pack with a 30+% return (in a month).  

Year to date, every asset class is positive, with crypto in the lead, following by US treasuries and gold. Stock markets around the world are positive now.
