Spotlight on the US Elections

For our US analysts, a Republican sweep was seen as the most bullish outcome, while a Democratic sweep was seen as the most bearish outcome, but the key thing to note is that the tilts were extremely mild. Second, some of the traditional Trump trades continue to emerge in policy assessments and sector views.
