US election outcome causes panic among investors

The outcome of the US presidential election will have a significant impact on the sharemarkets which is causing panic among investors.

Plato Investment Management Portfolio Manager Dr David Allen told Sky News Australia there are “fortunes going to be made, fortunes going to be lost”.

“The outcome that would cause the most damage would be a highly fractious, uncertain one.”

Elections can significantly shift market dynamics and investor sentiment. It's essential for us as investors to stay informed and adapt our strategies accordingly. Historically, certain sectors thrive depending on election outcomes—think green energy vs. fossil fuels. Keeping a close eye on the candidates' policies could provide valuable insights for making smart investment choices.

It's not about investments, it's about people

Better worry about the debt market, nobody's going to be able to pay back any of their debt

It goes up either way but we’re all better with Trump. His coalition win favors commodities, crypto, space, tech, batteries etc. Expect dramatic rate cuts and tax cuts across all sectors.

even AA and rehab could not save Harris, trump is the boss.

Sell any shares that are not linked to critical minerals, buy silver & gold bullion but not paper crapp.

No matter how 'badly' the S&P 500 performs it's all relative - just be thankful you did not invest in the Chinese equivalent over the past 5 years, your investment would be worth 60% what you put in

Uh… energy is up over the past few years because of the war in Ukraine and war in the Middle East. 😅

"Neither one of them will win, we are going to war"!! So there!!

My guess is it goes up either way. From there, pay attention to sectors. Trump is going to favor oil & gas, Harris will favor green stocks like wind and solar.

Trump is good for equities the markets support Trump, Harris although not expected will be positive to bonds, due to the demise of America

[frankartale]

If Trump wins, i think Crypto will explode !!

[wyatthurts]

If the fix is in the money will tell you!!

I recently sold some of my long-term position and currently sitting on about 250k, do you think Nvidia is a good buy right now or I have I missed out on a crucial buy period, any good stock recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated

I hope Trump buys Australia when he becomes President of the USA again.

[sspacegghost]

they have to swap kamal for michael...its their only hope to beat trump.

Trump had better start packing his bags for Venezuela because after November it's goodbye Trump and hello President Harris.
