Election results continue to roll in and it looks like the House stays with the Democrats and the Republicans control the Senate while the presidency is likely to go to Democratic Candidate Former Vice President Joe Biden. It appears that we will head into the weekend without a confirmed president and the Trump campaign mounts legal challenges in multiple states.

Market Tone:  Lots of back and forth the last couple of weeks after the initial bounce off the September lows. Expect volatility to continue post election. Stocks have put together a strong four day rally. That up action was lower but is on the rebound after a strong jobs report. Impressive.
