Lets get to dohm. Were watching markets for the s p 500 that have posted about a 1 gain over the last three months and for those people who are keeping track of some of the election markets statistics, its a big number. In the three months prior, some analysts and strategists note that if the market is higher in the three months before an election, its the incumbent party that wins. Well see if that trend plays out.
