Presidential Election
People care about elections, markets don't!
Here’s the thing: Presidential elections feel huge for individuals.
But for markets? Not so much.
Why?
Because markets don’t bet on one person—they bet on long-term trends.
Elections create noise, but they rarely change the game for long-term investors.
Here’s why you shouldn’t stress:
In the last century, the S&P 500 has risen under both Republican and Democratic presidents.
The economy is driven by way more than politics—think innovation, interest rates, and corporate earnings.
Plus, the market adjusts quickly after elections.
New policies? Sure. But the fundamentals? They stay the same.
So, don’t lose sleep over who’s in the Oval Office.
Focus on your investment strategy. Play the long game.
Here’s the bottom line:
The markets care about profits, not politics.
So, you shouldn’t let elections shake your portfolio. Stay calm. Stay invested. And keep your eye on the prize.
