MRK and AAPL are my two biggest holdings and they are down today. That offsets a lot of gains. Tons of stuff down, surprisingly . Hasbro, Phillip Morris, Nike, Home Depot.

Defensive stocks have outperformed this year, but today was 100% risk on, so the usual reliables didnt do as well today - the ones you mentioned plus PG, gold, silver, etc.

They have greatly underperformed for many years, and regulations greatly increased in this administration. If Trump eases regulations as he is expected to, smaller companies will benefit disproportionately.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by a quarter percentage point, avoiding any surprises just days after the election of Donald Trump as president.

The central bank voted unanimously Thursday to cut its benchmark rate by 25 basis points to a new range of 4.5%-4.75%, making the decision at the conclusion of its two-day policy meeting in Washington, D.C.
