Excellent analysis on the Financial Times #WealthManagement hub from my Professional Wealth Management (PWM) colleague Elisa Battaglia Trovato, looking at impact on portfolios of President #Biden's decision to stand down from US election campaign. Includes expert commentary from Ross Yarrow, Solita Marcelli, Lindsay James, Nigel Green, Aaron Rock, Steve Brice, Paul Christopher, CFA. Previously, investment firms were all talking about profiting from the '#Trump trade,' but it is clear that with #KamalaHarris now in contention, they are no longer banking on a Republican victory https://lnkd.in/e_vihiEP

New monthly newsletter from two friends David Longmore and myself. Private Equity - Long(more) and Fund Management - Low(en) collide to focus on differentiated angles on current affairs and a game changer of the month. See link to The Long and The Low of it below #Shapiro #Olympics #Asda #Cloth

Welcome to The Long & The Low of it. With more elections this year than any other in history, the spotlight on current affairs is intense. Launching today, this monthly newsletter from two friends (David Longmore - Director, Hanover Investors, and James Lowen, Senior Fund Manager J O Hambro Capital Management UK Equity Income Fund) makes it quicker and easier to get your head round the news flow. We examine these headline issues, but identify the points / evidence overlooked by the press and connect dots across different sources for a more balanced analysis. Each month we’ll pick a topic we feel will materially change the course of things now or in the future (our game changer) and four fresh angles of debate (our differentiators). We’ll cover anything relevant to the month’s news-flow, ranging from politics, economics, psychology, sport. Our opinions will always be backed by evidence. This is geared towards anyone wanting new perspectives and interesting data on the issues we’re all reading about. We hope you enjoy reading and follow the page, lots more content to come...

The upcoming US election is set to impact the M&A landscape, but Morgan Stanley predicts a strong M&A cycle regardless of the outcome. Historical data shows that presidential election cycles have mixed effects on M&A announcements. Instead, M&A activity is more driven by strong equity markets, open new issue markets, and incoming rate cuts. Whether it’s a Democrat or Republican victory, M&A momentum is likely to continue. What are your thoughts on the future of M&A in 2024? Do you think the election will significantly impact deal-making activity? Share your thoughts below! 👇 #MergersAndAcquisitions #MorganStanley #USElection #ProtegrityAdvisors #InvestmentOpportunities

🗳️ "Savvy investors need only turn to historical data to glean insights into the negligible impact of election outcomes on investment returns. Research conducted by Capital Group spanning over 90 years and 23 election cycles indicates that regardless of whether a Republican or Democrat occupies the White House1 U.S. stocks have exhibited an upward trajectory. Thus, maintaining a steady course amidst the tumult of political rhetoric is essential for prudent investment decisions." - Mark Pearson, founder and CEO of Nepsis, Inc. writes for VettaFi's Advisor Perspectives #electionyear #investing #stockmarket https://lnkd.in/gzpKZQkm

Investment and market experts say investors shouldn’t be making any major changes to their portfolios based on fears over the coming election results. Benjamin Rizzuto, Wealth Strategist for Janus Henderson Investors, Dave Sekera, Chief U.S. Market Strategist at Morningstar Research Services, and Solita Marcelli, Chief Investment Officer Americas at UBS Global Wealth Management, cautioned that investors, especially those who aren’t retiring soon and can handle some short-term market volatility, should stick with the long-term investment plans that they and their advisors developed. https://lnkd.in/gCV-8qRN #WealthSolutionsReport #FinancialAdvisors #WealthManagement #elections

As the U.S. presidential election approaches, a question I have been asked often is, "what would happen to the stock market if (insert name of candidate) wins"? My colleagues at RBC Global Portfolio Advisory Committee address this question in a recent article. It examines the historic returns of the S&P500 Index under under a variety of scenarios of either party controlling the White House, and/or Congress. Bottom line? "We advise investors to not allow the din of election coverage, nor the excitement or disappointment with the election outcome, to get in the way of sound portfolio management." #rbcwealthmanagement #rbcdominionsecurities #rbcglobalportfolioadvisorycommittee #wealthmanagement #uselection https://lnkd.in/gjj-UHAH
