The United States “As the probability of a Trump presidency started more difficult to buy things. what Trump really does. to go up, the markets haven’t done as well. I don’t think we can necessarily draw a line between those two things, but there’s a lot to be said for the uncertainty about his policies.” In terms of party effects on the market, it’s a puzzle. Kiplinger reported a statistical draw That’s a Wrap whether Republicans or Democrats have a better effect on the market. Republicans may have a slight advantage, but Underwood said Democrats have long-term had a better effect when all years are considered since the 1920s. When Republicans were in the White House, the market has been found to drop five times during election year, as compared to four times when Democrats were in office. “Study after study will show the difference between Democrats and Republicans and will show it’s better for one way for one party,” Riley said, “but one party isn’t better or worse.” According to the Kiplinger article, the market doesn’t predict who will win the presidency either. The market has been up during election year 10 times before a Republican won the nomination, and up eight times before a Democratic win. But, like the article says, “statistically, not enough to say with any confidence that a rising or declining market favors either party.” As the market figures out the economic policies of candidates, it incorporates those policies into prices. It’s a gradual effect that doesn’t happen overnight. The stock market doesn’t want to see radical change, but this year is so up for grabs that the market has no idea what to do, Riley said. The Wall Street Journal reported that “investors are welcoming the prospect that expansive fiscal spending under the Trump administration could Timothy Hong | Lariat Photographer bolster economic activity, push up inflation and PRANKED Wednesday morning, the statue of Rufus C.
