Our thoughts as election nears

Oct 14, 2024

As the election nears, investors are concerned about its effect on their wealth. Will stocks be strong or volatile? Will rates stay low, or will inflation make them high?  What will happen to the dollar? Will it strengthen on a flight to quality? Or will it weaken under burgeoning deficits and an accommodative Fed?

The answer to all these questions is YES!

After the election, all those scenarios will be tested. The only certainty regarding the markets after the Presidential election is uncertainty. Even when the election outcome is known, the markets are likely to gyrate. Intense volatility will be followed by unnerving calm. Then, more volatility, and then more of the unnerving calm. Exact market direction is unpredictable, but markets will move.

At Gnomon Alpha, we are agnostic because volatile and uncertain markets play to our strengths. So long as the markets move, our models are geared to catch them. Our nemesis is market apathy. Given such a close Presidential election between two diametrically opposed candidates, the odds of that happening are slim to none.

Our track record indicates that we thrive amidst either market chaos or largesse. In June 2019, for example, when markets were "risk on," we earned more than 10 percent for the month in our GME class. And just nine months later, in March of 2020, at the outbreak of the pandemic, we earned 15 percent amidst unprecedented volatility.

Gnomon Alpha's models are designed to thrive in any market condition. Whether it's chaos or bounty, our models remain indifferent. What matters to Gnomon Alpha is that the markets are moving. And we've proven our adaptability and success in both scenarios.
