We wrote extensively this autumn about the upcoming US presidential election. One of them dealt with the difference between the conservative and Democrat approach to the economy. And now, the Republicans’ worst nightmare is about to come true.<\/p>\n


\nS&P 500<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"S&P<\/p>\n

A reminder of what this was all about. Republicans have traditionally been in favour of tax cuts. This leaves extra money for businesses that increase production and create new jobs.
\nDemocrats like to raise taxes in order to use them for social programs. Naturally, business doesn’t like this, production growth and service delivery go down. Unemployment gets a little higher. However, this is compensated for by those same social programme payments.<\/p>\n


\nWhat has Donald Trump done during his years as president?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Apart from the many scandals that the whole world remembers, Trump did cut taxes in the US in a big way (although this is mostly remembered by Americans themselves). The economy grew by leaps and bounds on this cut and unemployment fell to multi-year lows. Of course, the pandemic turned everything upside down, but that is another story.<\/p>\n


\nJoe Biden’s Business Horror<\/strong><\/p>\n

The other day a bill was signed into law for the biggest economic stimulus in history, to the tune of USD 1.9 trillion. This could lead to a real budget deficit of 15% in 2021. What is a budget deficit? It means that expenditures exceed revenues. And where does the revenue come from? That’s right, from taxes.
\nIt makes perfect sense that Joe Biden’s administration plans to raise them. But the Democrats have decided not to be petty. According to leaked data, Americans are about to face the biggest tax increase in 30 years.
\nOne of the main taxes shaping the budget is set to rise from 21% to 28%. It is a tax on profits paid by corporations. Added to this is an increase in tax rates on inheritance, capital gains, income of wealthy Americans, etc.
\nWho was doing something like this 30 years ago? Of course it was the Democrat president, Bill Clinton.
\nHow does this threaten the US stock market, and subsequently the stock markets around the world? We invite you to ponder it today and tomorrow morning we will tell you what we think about it.<\/p>\n
