More populism threatens in both parties - this makes the US midterm elections a danger for investors
The midterms at the beginning of November are causing unrest in the markets. In addition to the majority ratios, the orientation of both parties is at stake. Energy and financial companies could come under pressure if the Democrats win.
The US midterm elections on November 3 may bring uncertainty and gridlock to the markets. The Democrats are expected to win the House of Representatives, while the Senate race is open, which could lead to a power struggle with the Trump administration. If the Democrats gain control of both, they may launch investigations into Trump's associates, but important legislation could be blocked.
The outcome may impact various industries, including energy, healthcare, and finance, with the energy sector potentially being a big loser due to the differing views of the two parties.
