| |  Good morning. Moody's Analytics uses three different models to determine presidential elections. One model is based on consumer's pocketbooks, one is based on stock market performance, and the final model is based on unemployment data. Going back to 1980, the models only gave one false prediction in 2016.
For 2020, all three models predict that President Trump will "steamroll the competition" and garner even more Electoral College votes—unless Democratic turnout hits record levels.

While many investors are wary of the overall market valuations out there after a decade-long bull market, there are still plenty of names that are cheap.
In fact, they're a good argument for higher markets. It's when all companies, start to move higher together that the market is getting into its final speculative phase.
