Nov 3rd Election Day
If you are a citizen please exercise your privilege to vote on Tuesday if you haven’t already voted by mail in ballot.
How will the election affect the markets?
Due to pandemic millions of votes were already casted through mail-in-ballots. Speculation is that results of the election may take a few days to be announced. There is also speculation that legal battles will be fought over the results. All this creates uncertainty and stock markets usually don’t do well with uncertainties. Past few weeks performance may be a result of the anticipated uncertainty as companies despite beating earnings estimates have had their stock value decline.
Last week we mentioned AMZN, FB, AAPL and GOOG may decline even when they were expected to beat earnings estimate. All except GOOG declined but GOOG also gave back 1/2 of its intraday gains to close up 3.4% on Friday.
This week Paypal, Square, & Uber will report their earnings. They are all expected to beat the estimates. Combined with the uncertainties around the elections and the behavior of the market in the past few weeks short terms traders should expect these stocks decline after they report.
