This Tuesday, November 5, the election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump will determine who will be the next president of the United States.
During this election day, global markets face high volatility as not only the future of the United States is defined, but also the course of strategic sectors in the coming years.
According to an analysis by JP Tactical Trading, investors are closely watching specific sectors such as renewable energy, housing, and technology, which could see significant changes if Harris, with her focus on green and equity policies, is elected.

The continuity of climate initiatives, financial regulations and health reforms contrasts with Trump’s stance, who favors a more conservative and deregulatory policy. However, Trump’s economic policies, although sometimes outside of what the current president establishes, are more economically effective.

Sector analysis: key actions and expectations
- Technology and National Security: Both Trump and Harris have expressed intentions to restrict technology exports to China and to establish strict guidelines for artificial intelligence. Temporary volatility in AI stocks, such as Nvidia (NVDA) and Palantir (PLTR), could be offset by support for technological innovation, where giants such as Microsoft (MSFT) and Nvidia see growth potential in digital infrastructure and cybersecurity.
- Healthcare: Trump and Harris’ healthcare policies, aimed at reducing drug costs and expanding programs like Medicare, project a potential impact on companies like Humana (HUM) and UnitedHealth Group (UNH), which may benefit from increased insurance coverage under expansive public health policies.
