Halfway through the current US presidential term, the country is holding midterm elections to determine the balance of power in Congress and many state capitols. Polls are open, and traders are reacting to an influx of election news by repricing financial assets. Today, voters will elect politicians with power to approve or deny government contracts, regulatory clearances, budget priorities, trade agreements, and other political consequences on public companies’ bottom lines. Today’s midterms will decide control of the House of Representatives, a portion of the Senate, and many governorships.
