With the US election decided, the paper looks at the burning question of What’s next? for markets, by looking at other, similar, events - including Brexit and the 2000 US election – to find out of what might be expected in equity and currency markets over the near term.
The paper concludes that the uncertainty and associated market volatility we have seen in the past may well come to pass again. As a result, market volatility might become the order of the day as the US transitions to a substantially different style of administration from the past eight years and new policies are put into place.
