It's easy and counterproductive to politicize the stock market: Democrats would say the it's plunging due to eight years of Republican leadership. Republicans would counter that the free-falling stock market is pricing in a Democrat in the White House.
Research based on the past 80 years shows that
American stock markets have performed better under Democrats, but the Republicans would correctly point out that the result is distorted due to the Internet revolution that took place during the Clinton administration.
