The results are in, settling some of the uncertainty that’s followed us through 2026. American wallets ultimately had a major voice in this election—and elections can have the capacity to affect Americans’ financial situations right back. So what should we expect from this new Congress? Chief Investment Strategist Katie Klingensmith and host Michael Liersch explore how policy debates around affordability, fiscal deficits, AI, and trade could shift. They also cover what those developments could mean for markets, why diversification matters so much, and why anticipating the future is less important than preparing for it.

Investing strategies, such as asset allocation, diversification or rebalancing, do not ensure or guarantee better performance and cannot eliminate the risk of investment losses. All investments have inherent risks, including loss of principal. There are no guarantees that a portfolio employing these or any other strategy will outperform a portfolio that does not engage in such strategies. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
