Will the US election impact your investment portfolio?

It’s natural for investors to look for a connection between who wins the White House and which way the stock market will go. Investors also ask whether they should change their portfolios in the run up to the US election.
This short video from our friends at Dimensional Fund Advisors considers what impact the outcome of an election has on the US stock market and client portfolios.
Regardless of who wins the US election, nearly a century of returns shows that the US stock market has trended upward.
A timely reminder that…
  • Shareholders are investing in companies, which focus on serving their customers and growing their businesses, regardless of who is in the White House.
  • US presidents may have an impact on stock market returns, but so do many other factors—the actions of foreign leaders, interest rate changes, changing oil prices, and technological advances, just to name a few.
