One of the top stories of New Year 2024 will be the presidential election.
And while there’s no way to tell who will lead the country after the votes are tallied, there is one certainty – volatility will soar with uncertainty ahead of time.
We saw the same thing before most presidential elections with the Volatility Index.
- Before the 1992 election (Clinton v. Bush), the VIX ran from 12.47 to 20.51.
- Before the 1996 election (Clinton v. Dole), the VIX ran from 14 to 22.
- Before the 2000 election (Bush v. Gore), the VIX ran from 17 to 27.
- Before the 2004 election (Bush v. Kerry), the VIX ran from 13 to 16.7.
- Before the 2008 election (Obama v. McCain), the VIX ran from 20 to 90.
- Before the 2012 election (Obama v. Romney), the VIX ran from 15.5 to 22.
- Before the 2016 election (Trump v. Clinton), the VIX ran from 12 to 22.
- Before the 2020 election (Trump v. Biden), the VIX ran from 20 to 40.
We expect to see another round of high volatility ahead of the 2024 election, too. All thanks to uncertainty as to who could run the country, and new potential policy.
