History sets the playbook for US election FX impact
Repeats with no changes
Nov 1 (Reuters) -Looking at the past two U.S. elections and the subsequent fallout across the FX space can give us a rough playbook as to how FX will likely trade on either a Donald Trump or Kamala Harris victory.
In 2016, Trump’s shock victory led to a wave of dollar buying across the board, most notably against the euro, yen, MXN and AUD – the last, in large part due to being a liquid China proxy to trade. Now of course, it is worth noting that with the yuan being heavily managed, moves in the currency are much more subdued than its freely traded counterparts.
As we have seen in recent weeks, the rising odds of a Trump win – at least in the betting markets – has exacerbated the latest bid in the dollar. With Trump stepping up his tariff rhetoric, the common view is that should he get the keys to the White House again the direction of travel in the dollar will be much the same as 2016, albeit to a lesser degree as the shock value will be more contained.
On the flipside, Joe Biden’s election win in 2020 sets the precedent as to what a Harris victory will look like, which on the whole points to both dollar and volatility heading lower over the short run.
