What happens regardless of the election outcome? Taxes, tech restrictions, and less regulation.

The 2024 presidential election is only a few days away, and while markets have been hyper-focused on the immediate outcome, we encourage investors to look beyond the immediate political contest and consider the policy landscape likely to emerge regardless of the election outcome:
Taxes: The returning debt limit (January 1) and the expiration of the individual provisions of the 2017 tax changes (December 31) will be dominant themes regardless of the election outcome.
Regulation: Four years from today, there will be less regulation following the overturning of "Chevron deference,” which will limit the ability of regulators to push the limits of their authorities.
Tech restrictions: Restricting key technology from being sold to China has bipartisan support and will continue regardless of the election outcome.
