Every time Trump takes on a few extra electoral votes the dow futures fall another 100 points....incredible.... At the rate its looking might be a 1000 point gap down kind of day tomorrow...but if Clinton comes out on top look for a huge gigantic reversal in the futures to +500
I have to admit it was much closer than I thought it would be, currently 49% Trump 47% Clinton. I thought the margin would be a minimum of 5% for trump and likely 10%. This being said we will never know what the actual real vote percentage was. The US dodged a bullet today, the sad thing is most people don't realise it.
To put this into perspective, the indexes are still above their Brexit lows...and way above their Jan-Feb lows. Even a really bad week and 10% drop isn't a big deal in the long term. Now if you're heavily long (leveraged) in the short term, that's a different story.
