Why Market Volatility is an Opportunity

Volatile Elections Can Mean Volatile Markets – Here is What You Should Know

Did you know that some of the steepest moves in financial markets were triggered by political events? US elections, in particular, have a history of causing significant market turbulence, driven by uncertainty and shifts in investor sentiment.

For example:

  • In 2008, the election coincided with the global financial crisis, causing extreme volatility as traders navigated the uncertainties of a new administration and economic policies.
  • In 2016, the presidential election saw the dollar initially drop sharply, only to recover and surge as markets adjusted to the unexpected outcome.
  • In 2020, President Joseph Biden Jr won the presidential election in the United States, and this led to the weakening of the US dollar against currencies of emerging markets since his win was seen as a positive development for these markets.

We could go on highlighting more examples, but you get the point: election season in the United States causes high volatility* in the forex market.
