Yahoo Finance’s Capitol Gains premiers at a pivotal time for investors. A presidential election looms on the horizon, and the stability of the economy remains one of the biggest issues for most Americans; especially the shape of the platforms for both the incumbent and challenger. 

Former President Donald Trump’s speech at the RNC was much anticipated, and stole the headlines - especially in the aftermath of an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. 

He told a crowd of delegates he wants to end the ‘devastating inflation crisis immediately, bring down interest rates and lower the cost of energy’. Meanwhile, questions linger around the candidacy of current President Joe Biden, and if he’ll even remain the Democratic choice for November 5th.

Yahoo Finance’s Rachelle Akuffo, Ben Werschkul and Rick Newman discussed what all this could mean for the nation’s policy positions in the years to come. 

They also spoke with Veda Partners’ Henrietta Treyz; she expects the election to ‘get back to its previously scheduled programing’, and that Biden dropping out of race WILL now transpire.
