What impact will the upcoming 2004 US election have on the equity market in the next 12 to 18 months? Considering that most American middle class (and above) has most of their retirement funds in the stock market, it should be high priority to raise the value of the portfolios (which translate to the feel good psyche as well) in order to assure re-election of the present administration. That is, in case the high pitched fervors of American patriotism and fear propaganda would subside within the next 18 months. A status quo in the economy and employment with a touch of terrorist paranoia would do the job for easy reelection. But I think it will take a little more than that. There are ways to influence (sway) the stock market for a short duration.
