In this Coffee Break, we discuss the intersection of U.S. presidential elections and the stock market with Carolyn Kwan, a portfolio manager at Connor, Clark & Lunn Investment Management (the manager of our Income Fund and Savings Fund).
With the American election just three weeks away, we explore the historical patterns of stock market performance under Democratic and Republican presidents, and how different political parties influence economic trends. Carolyn also addresses the relationship between elections and market volatility, and offers practical advice for investors during election cycles.
