总体而言,从长远来看,选举结果对大盘影响可能不大。股价更多取决于企业利润和利率的走向,而非谁控制华盛顿的什么。但投资者通常偏好华盛顿的分权制衡,因为这降低了经济发生变革性变化的风险。
Overall, the election may not matter much for the broad market in the long term.

But investors generally prefer split control of Washington because it lessens the risk of transformative changes to the economy.

Elon Musk’s businesses also struggled. Tesla fell 3.3%, and SpaceX sank 3.8%. Musk, a former top Trump adviser , is among the possible targets for investigations by a Democratic-controlled Congress .
鉴于特朗普是人工智能行业的主要支持者,共和党的挫折加剧了人们的担忧,即由人工智能热潮推高的股价是否已过高。
Given Trump’s role as a big backer of the AI industry, the setback for Republicans has added to worries over whether share prices boosted by the buildup of AI have flown too high.
由民主党主导的国会可能迫使特朗普在与伊朗的对抗上退让,这打击了为美军生产武器和其他装备的公司股价。洛克希德·马丁下跌6.9%,诺斯罗普·格鲁曼下跌4.5%,通用动力下跌2.6%。

Falling oil prices usually hurt stocks of renewable-energy companies because they can lessen the incentive to switch to other energy sources. But Democratic control of Congress could light the way for companies in the solar and wind industries.
