Imo, there is no saving the next Prez from a recession in 2017. The difference is that Clinton has more plans for fiscal stimulus than Trump, so it is possible that she could shorten it better.Everyday there is someone calling out at least a 5-10% drop in the market if Trump wins.....this morning it's citi making the call....and now all of the sudden we are getting more recession predictions as well if he wins....so if Clinton wins markets rally back to historical highs and forever rally and we get no recession for at least 4 years.....???

Trump is being painted as anti-business. I don't buy this. I do paint him as anti-trade, some kind of trade, but in fact that style trade might be healthier than given credit for because it will be fairer for both sides.
Markets don't like that Clinton has been moved left by Sanders and Warren. In fact, this is likely to be at least a wash and maybe a plus since many of these policies will put money in the hands of people that spend it instead of hording it.
In conclusion, the stock market has its head up its ass, as usual. It goes higher in spite of the assholes that "run it".
I would not be surprised one bit by a 2300 SPX year end 2017 regardless of president [probably with a dip to 1900 to 2000 first depending on who wins]. Markets are more affected by IRs than just about anything else, and both of these candidates regardless of their rhetoric see the need for smart fiscal stimulus.
Reason it out.Recession in 2017....s&p to 2300?
Hmmmm......did I get that right?
