Wall Street Tumbles As Investors Just Weren't Happy About Anything

Description

Wall Street saw US stocks slide on Tuesday, as fiscal stimulus negotiations lurched into stalemate territory. According to Business Insider, initial results of the third-quarter earnings season kick-off from banks like Citigroup and JPMorgan also failed to impress investors. Apple announced its new iPhone 12 lineup--the tech giant's first major redesign of its flagship product in over 3 years. It didn't go over well: Apple's stock slid, too. And even gold, the ever-popular commodity, fell as much as 1.9%, to $1,886.54 per ounce. However, a breakthrough in stimulus talks could be near, as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell signaled support for passing a deal prior to the upcoming election.

Strategist: Investors Should Seize The Market's 'Knee Jerk' Drop If Biden Wins

A Credit Suisse analyst says that if Joe Biden wins the US presidential election in November, it could spur a 'knee-jerk' pullback in the stock market of 5%. According to Markets Insider, senior investment strategist Suresh Tantia said that was due to the Democratic nominee's stance on corporate taxes. However, Tantia said investors should look at such a pullback as a buying opportunity, as Fed support will keep driving markets after the election. The central-bank support is not going anywhere. The Fed is going to keep rates lower for longer, similar to other central banks. Suresh Tantia, Senior Investment Strategist Credit Suisse Tantia's tip for traders?
