Campaign Promises vs. Legislation: While campaign rhetoric provides insight, not all proposals will pass through legislation. Investors should be cautious when positioning portfolios based on campaign trail developments and continue to maintain their focus on their long-term investment plan. Historical Market Trends & Political Sweeps: Historically, markets tend to rally in the first year following a political sweep, show uneven performance in the second year, and experience delayed legislative impact, which can take years to materialize.
