Trumpled (Alternative Leading)

[Thryleon]

The Senate is tied at 48 each and won't be finalised until run-off elections are held.  Whichever party wins will have a small majority and, as we know, voting on party lines isn't a thing in the USA.  Interesting times ahead and hardly the stuff to encourage the Dow to rise.

Actually, this is the stuff that makes the DOW rise.

The Dow dislikes uncertainty.

A republican or Democrat majority with same president in power, leads to volatility, policy creation on the run, and a lot of undoing of previous implementations surrounding tax law, fiscal stimulus, strategy regarding environment, energy, war etc etc etc.

When the senate is split, there are a lot more checks and balances, and voting that eradicates the volatility, and the DOW likes that more than any party or person elected, because they know that the next 3 years will look roughly like the last 3 years.
