If Obama wins, or looks likely to win, reelection, what impact do you think it will have on the stock market?

If the generally accepted meaning of the word marriage can be redefined, so can "keep and bear" or "freedom of speech" or anything else in the Constitution.

It won't change the results. Are they going to turn of the HFT machines that day?

I think the time frame matters. Is it up/down/unch the next day, the next 6 mos, the next year, etc..

The market is only allowed to go up. There will be short downtrends like we are in now, but overall the market will only be allowed to go up. Obviously if they were manipulating LIBOR, odds are the equity markets were not left untouched.

Since the meme is "inflate at all costs", I have an idea of what will likely happen. However, getting that to "work" will be a bit more of a challenge.

Totally anti capitalist, totally anti free market, but pro money printing QE. Hard to say.

IMO the market will sky when the uncertainty is removed, regardless of the candidate. Where it will sky FROM is another story.

They told me if I voted for John McCain, an idiot would be a heartbeat away from the presidency. Sure enough...

I've not heard that Romney is a monetary hawk. So I don't expect the FED to behave much differently no matter who gets elected.

I can see the case that the uncertainty we're suffering under will be lessened should Romney get elected. Obamacare being a big part of this, assuming he follows through with his promise to repeal. The same story WRT the EPA and other regulatory agencies. Should the uncertainty lessen, I can see J6P rearranging his retirement assets.

I don't see Romney going fullon fiscal hawk, but maybe he'll grow a pair.

The timing is difficult to imagine. Opinion polls could show Obama getting shellacked going into the election, but the MSM will still be playing it up as close to keep their ad dollars rolling in.
