With the presidential election quickly approaching, we understand this may be a stressful time. From ballot counts to legal challenges, Election Day is likely just the beginning. As John Emerson, Vice Chair of Capital Group, notes:

We know that uncertainty can be unsettling, but it’s important to remember that markets have historically shown resilience over time. If you’d like to dive deeper, you can read more about what to expect in the coming months and how markets have responded in past election years here.
