In the run up to of one of the most consequential US elections in recent history, we were very pleased to host a webinar with Freddy Gray, Deputy Editor of The Spectator and Editor of Spectator World, in conversation with Freddy Colquhoun, Investment Director at JM Finn and regular media commentator, to help us make sense of this pivotal election and what it could mean for the US, the rest of the world, and the global investment landscape.
This lively and informative discussion provided a comprehensive analysis of both the Democrat and Republican election campaigns, including their individual strengths and weaknesses, the tactics used by both candidates, their prowess (or lack thereof) in debating, the difference in their policies and – crucially, how likely both Harris and Trump might be to actually follow through on their election promises. Freddy and Freddy discussed the dramatic events that have shaped the campaign so far, including the Trump assassination attempt and the last-minute Democratic candidate switch from Biden to Harris – and the impact these events have had on poll ratings.
Also covered were the ramifications of both possible election outcomes for investors and global markets. Freddy offered his expert analysis on how a new Trump administration's policies could affect various sectors of the economy, as well as his views on the million-dollar question: Who will win the election? The only thing we can predict with any certainty in the next few weeks leading up to the result is that there will not be a dull moment.
