Election

Just when you thought you knew what to expect in a “Convention” to nominate a party’s presidential candidate, along comes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (aka AOC) and says what almost no one expected her to say at the virtual 2020 Democratic National Convention.

In her 90-second speech Tuesday evening, she didn’t mention the Convention. She didn’t mention Joe Biden.

After endorsing what sounded more like the platform Bernie Sanders would champion, she seconded the nomination of, Bernie Sanders.

You read that right. Bernie Sanders, not Joe Biden.

And while I did promise you Monday to talk about the three stocks that you should buy if Biden wins the election, we have to dig a little deeper first into AOC’s speech, why she seemingly upstaged Joe Biden with Bernie Sanders’ rhetoric, and what it means for those three stocks.

Let’s dive in…

The upcoming election is going to change all our lives, not just because it will determine who the President is going to be, or how divided or united Congress is going to be, moreover because whatever the outcome is, there are going to be huge winners and losers in the economy and the stock market.

And being on the right side of all the opportunities ahead of us will truly be life changing.

While it matters who wins and who loses, to a lot of Americans, what matters to me is what’s going to change and how to position ourselves as traders and investors to make money from what will and won’t change, depending on the outcome of the election.

Here’s what the outcomes could be and how markets and sectors will move initially and longer-term.
