But, will they negotiate a compromise or will both parties play to the media and their constituencies to the detriment of the American economy and the American people? What we refer to as the fiscal cliff fear factor may drive investors to make poor and hasty decisions based upon ever changing and rather poor information. Long term investing hinges on solid fundamental analysis of all factors that determine the intrinsic value and margin of safety of the stocks in one’s stock portfolio. When the fiscal cliff fear factor drives investor sentiment prices, market volatility may allow traders to make money but can simply result in big headaches for those who invest for the long term.

And if the Problem Continues? Let us assume that business as usual will continue in Washington. Republicans will probably dig in their heels. They will continue to work on their long term goal of rolling back the social programs of the Great Society of the 60’s and New Deal of the 30’s. Democrats will seek to preserve the same social programs while dealing with budget deficits, the likelihood of a steadily devaluating dollar, and the risk of losing the White House in 2016. The eternal cat fight on Capitol Hill never seems to serve the interests of the Nation but that is how it is. How can an investor benefit from the market chaos caused by the fiscal cliff fear factor?
