US Election: what are the markets pricing in?

With the US presidential election just a matter of weeks away, do the markets give us any clear idea of the likely outcome? Will Covid-19 disrupt the process so much that the result may be challenged in court?

In this episode, we are joined by two guests: Jonathan Wood, director of global risk analysis at Control Risks and Michael Gayed portfolio manager at Toroso Asset Management and author of the Lead-Lag Report. The guests discuss the potential election outcomes, market volatility and the massive amounts of debt in the current financial system.
