On Friday, the non-partisan Brookings Institution released a paper which describes the expected impact of the outcome of the 2016 U.S. presidential election on the global financial markets, reports the Huffington Post.
Authored by the University of Michigan's Justin Wolfers and Dartmouth College's Eric Zitzewitz, the piece notes, "...we estimate that market participants believe that a Trump victory would reduce the value of the S&P 500, the UK, and Asian stock markets by 10-15%, would reduce the oil price by $4, would lead to a 25% decline in the Mexican Peso, and would significantly increase expected future stock market volatility."

But, if you really want to be like Hitler, you can have a war and the military spending will continue to mask the problem.
That would explain the saber rattling in Syria.
Good. Get it started with sooner, gonna happen sooner or later, and get worse anyway.
GOOD - ITS PROBABLY RUN BY CRIMINALS IN LEAGUE WITH THE GOVERNMENTS IF THAT IS TRUE
...or not.
IIRC correctly, back in 1980 the markets had a similar correction when Ronald Reagan (whom the media had characterized as an ignorant Hollywood actor who would lead the country into ruin) had won in a surprise landslide.
It’s because the markets hate uncertainty. And we are overdue for one today anyway. (Hint: Now is a good time to take short positions.)
Are these the same prognosticators that said if brexit vote went through the market would collapse?
Even if true, who cares?
It would be a good time to buy stocks, which will rebound in a dramatic way once Trump’s policies are enacted.
I can’t WAIT. Biggest trading opportunity in a lifetimes
Hi.
“Michigan’s Justin Wolfers and Dartmouth College’s Eric Zitzewitz”

Scientific Wild Ass Guess.
I think I can feel Huffpo’s desperation.
5.56mm
Or the market may take off to the moon.
Brookings is a far left .”think” tank.
non-partisan my ass.
Yes. LOL! What a joke!
I don’t see anything bad about any of those results. Oil goes down. The peso goes down. I remember when the stock market plummeted in Bush’s last term. We survived.
Of course, the powers could be putting this out because they know a huge crash is coming and they know Trump is going to win, therefore, blame Trump.
Brookings is heavily funded by Qatar
I remember when the UK voted about leaving the EU, they said if the UK would leave the earth would explode and fly into the sun. Same what they said about the Netherlands voting against the Ukraine’s semi-enty in the EU, Holland would sink into the ocean and the explode.
If anything will crash the market it will be the Federal Bank that will raise interest rates.
Wow, according to them he’s worse than Climate Change
