Observing extreme volatility on Election night as we countdown to the critical too close to call Florida result! For instance the betting markets an hour before the US polls closed had Trump trading at 6.6 - That's at about 11pm UK Time.

Then by 1am the betting market was virtually discounting a Trump election win and the odds for Trump extended to a high of 15! As illustrated by the 1am price of 12 which translates into a £100 bet converting into a £1,100 profit! Against a £100 bet for Hillary converting into a £10 profit!

Whilst the price for 2am was 5.4.

And the last price is 3.8 - Trump appears to be marching towards VICTORY AS FORECAST! So much for the likes of Nate Silver, the New York Times and the hundreds of clueless academics and professors who I am going to enjoy tearing to pieces in a series of articles. But first - FLORIDA BECKONS!

My forecast as of 26th September concluding that Trump should win as a consequence of the BrExit factor.

25 Sep 2016 - US Presidential Election Forecast 2016 - Trump Riding BrExit Wave into the White House

And my most recent update of 2nd November 2016 confirmed expectations that Trump would win :

My most recent video analysis pointed out that in this election the critical factor was what was happening in Florida:

The bottom line is that the BrExit Factor WARNED that the polls are wrong to the degree of between 3-4%. Which meant whilst Hillary was +3.2% ahead before the polls closed. Trump could STILL WIN which has been the message of EVERY article and video I have posted for the past 2 months!

Meanwhile the wall street backers of Hillary Clinton are marking down stock futures with the Dow trading 300 points lower as I write.
