The US Federal election campaign is already closer than many punters are willing to call, and there are several potential outcomes that have implications for investors.

  • Biden’s policies are most significant for specific sectors of the market
  • The US dollar may rally post the final vote, and
  • What investors need to prepare for, whatever the final count.
