While the pandemic remains the key mover of stocks, investors are beginning to worry about the implications of a Biden win in November.
July 7, 2020
After months of fixating on the pandemic, Wall Street has something new to worry about: a possible Biden presidency.
With the latest polls suggesting that former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has built a commanding lead over President Trump in the 2020 race, investors have begun to take into account that the not-too-distant future could look very different from the business-friendly thrust of the current administration. And it’s making some nervous.
Investors aren’t yet making buying and selling decisions based on the eventuality of a Biden administration, so the market’s dips and rallies don’t fully reflect their worries. But there are clues.
On June 24, when the market dropped 2.6 percent during a broad-based rise in coronavirus infections, some Wall Street traders and analysts attributed part of the fall to data from polls — including one produced by The New York Times and Siena College — showing Mr. Biden’s lead over Mr. Trump...
“The market is starting to worry that Trump will not be re-elected,” said Lori Calvasina, head of U.S. equity strategy at RBC Capital Markets. “Trump is consistently viewed as a positive for the stock market.”

Investors Start to Ask: What if Biden Becomes President? (Published 2020)

If you invest in stocks, you did great under Obama and not quite as well under Trump. Obviously.
The big question is how is the stock market still so high?
Huh?
Many companies have been able to slash their labor costs with the government picking up the slack to keep the laid-off workers housed and fed. It's almost like socialism.
That’s right. The Feds gave me a month of overhead.
Make sure I can keep my employees happy and put a few hundy in the market when it tanked for a couple of weeks.
Now they need to do more...and not for me, this time.
From CNBC:
Some investors are placing bets that the stock market could have a massive sell-off following the election, and some analysts say it’s because of the fear of a Democrats winning the presidency and both houses of Congress....
Krosby said President Donald Trump is still viewed as a better steward of the economy, and therefore better for the market than former Vice President Joe Biden, who has said he would raise taxes on corporations. The RealClear Politics average of polls shows Biden ahead by 5.9 points...
Analysts at BCA Research said the stock market is underestimating how negative a Biden victory would be for investing. “If the Democrats gain control of the Senate alongside a Biden victory, as our Geopolitical Strategy Service projects, financial markets may have to begin discounting a future materially less friendly regulatory and tax policy,” the analysts note.
The Democrats would be negative for corporate profits and put pressure on margins with an expected tax hike, the BCA analysts said.

Democratic Presidents are almost always better for the economy.
Pressure on the margins shouldn’t matter, unless you excessively leverage like Trump...and then you go BK!

Actually if you watched or read the full quote, most of the press mischaracterized what she said.
