Trump Considers Jamie Dimon for Treasury Secretary if Elected In a Bloomberg interview, former President Donald Trump said he's considering JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon for Treasury Secretary if elected. Trump also mentioned he would let Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell finish his term ending in 2026. Despite previous tensions with Powell over interest rate hikes, Trump advised against rate cuts before the 2024 election, emphasizing that the Fed should remain apolitical in its decisions. #DonaldTrump #BloombergInterview #JamieDimon #JPMorgan #TreasurySecretary #KevinOLeary #FederalReserve #JeromePowell #InterestRates #2024Election #Politics #USEconomy #RonNechemia #GlobalBank

Who are you voting for President? Don't keep the winner from clouding your #investment judgment. Biden and Trump have secured enough delegates to become their parties' nominees, but the outcome of the 2024 #Presidentialelection remains murky. Regardless of who the next president is, since 1953, investing in the S&P 500 only during #Republican or #Democratic presidencies would have resulted in major shortfalls versus investing in the index regardless of the political party in power. The chart below (source: Goldman Sachs Asset Management) shows $10K invested in the S&P500 since 1953 across Democratic, Republican, and both regimes. Don't make investment decisions based on which political party controls the Oval Office. #politics #investment #investing #investmentadvice #financialadvice #financialplanning #investmentplanning #wealth #money #rich #stockmarket #investmentreturns #ovaloffice #finance #financialadvisor #wealthmanagement #investor #ovaloffice

Biden drops out of the presidential race! Announced on his X account just now. The decision has been expected by the markets for some time, but it’s now been made official. Biden has also come out and endorsed VP Harris, saying: "Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year." In the greater context, Trump is still the favourite to win the election per the latest data. However, it’s not a complete given. The race for the House is also a factor to watch closely. What’s most interesting though is how this translates to the FX and bond markets. Seasonality for bonds look constructive for the next few weeks, which means downside on yields. However, looking at the blend of factors being mixed into markets at the moment, from anticipated Fed cuts, to continued developments in the political landscape - this is certainly setting a very interesting space for the markets. #us #politics #biden #trump #geopolitics #markets #macro #bonds

Unless you live under a rock, you would have heard the news that President Biden is stepping down and endorsing Kamala Harris. This means we're probably in for a wild ride in the financial markets. The potential for increased volatility is very high as investors navigate the uncertainty of Harris securing the Democratic nomination and facing off against Trump. Historically, election years bring market jitters, and this year is shaping up to be one of the best for volatility. Keep an eye on major forex pairs like EUR/USD and USD/JPY as they might experience significant swings in reaction to political developments. Disclaimer: This is general advice only.
