The race for the White House will likely impact the equity markets. While you may be tempted to position your portfolio now, experts say it's best to wait. Here's what different results on Nov. 3 could mean for stocks.

While 45% of investors surveyed said they plan to make changes before the election, 62% indicated they will likely make changes in the 12 months after Nov. 3, Hartford Funds' survey found."We're definitely seeing heightened emotions and a lot of passion coming out of this election," Julia Carlson, founder and CEO of Financial Freedom Wealth Management Group in Newport, Oregon, said during a Thursday webcast.

And if you strip away some outliers, such as the boom years under President Bill Clinton or the dips prompted by the dot com bust, there's practically zero difference in equity market returns, he said. "Short-term, the market never likes uncertainty," Link said. "We have this uncertainty and we don't know who's going to win."Exactly how the election affects the markets would likely change based on three different potential outcomes, Link said.

I read these articles and the authors seem to forget or neglect what is driving the market. This is not a free market and is completely dependent on Fed backing. Unemployment continues to remain high and little progress is being made with COVID.

So I might actually vote in the US elections because nonUS citizens are not allowed to vote, and I don’t want to be a US citizen but I am. So it’s like a foreigner sneaking into the US elections 😂😂😂

Surviving COVID Is more important.

It is Biden v the President! Biden wants to be president! Biden has 48 years is Congress as a Democrat? His views & his politics has done nothing to make our lives better. The party that invented the KKK, Black Panthers, Acorn, BLM & many other org.,used by Dems! To control Votes

Orange man vs. Biden: Here's how the eating contest outcome may influence your stock investments.

Stock market did better under Obama than Trump.

I am a full time stock trader. I don't CARE AT ALL!...there is NO AMOUNT of money worth having that freaking tangerine disaster leading the formerly closet racist garbage of the US. Biden is priceless to living in the United States in 2021.

WHY 911

The idea that Trump is a “business friendly” president is a joke. He’s tried to ban Harley Davidson, Goodyear, GM, Amazon, etc. His constant chaos, tariffs & trade wars create neverending uncertainty. He politicizes Fed policy & his trade agreements are BS (China isn’t abiding).

Presidents come and presidents go, the market plows on. The only real risk is America succumbing to foreign influence/corruption or losing its trusted position as a global leader to its allies. Trump is the far bigger threat to our long term interests & standing globally.

If Biden wins his handlers policies will tank the economy. Extensive Loss of jobs certainly a recession This election much different than recent pasr elections. Who will be running the country? Certainly not Biden. The stock market is just part of the story.

Don’t care as long as Biden wins!

Cnbc trying to tank the market and engineer a false sell off

It’s only valid if we defeat the Covid , if not the whole world will change and the investment change as well. First defeat the Covid then talk about money and investment.

Always about the MONEY for Republicans !! Who cares if millions have lost their jobs and can’t buy food or pay the rent !

If JoeBiden wins, the Shanghai Composite will go bonkers! Oh yea, and the Dow, Nasdaq and Russell will all plummet too. US Jobless claims increase, China’s unemployment rate hits below 3%. No thanks! Landslide2020 🇺🇸

Thank you Biden

My what say 80% of Americans.

Simple, Trump wins market soars. Biden wins markets go down. Biden wins and dems flip the senate, markets get screwed.
