Which candidate the market might like

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

Investors usually prefer the Republican party, which is seen as favoring tax cuts and other legislation that is more supportive to Big Business. But eight years of the Bush administration has left many players in the financial services world feeling that even a Democratic president may not be as unsavory to Wall Street as it has been in the past.

... McCain would probably be "the safest candidate for Wall Street" since he would be the less likely "to create an environment that is difficult for business."

Business leaders feel more comfortable with Republicans in general, Rutherford said. Yet, it's telling that the financial contributions from Wall Street are currently going more toward the Democrats.

...

Sure, Wall Street likes tax cuts and other purportedly Big Business-supportive policy, said Barry Ritholtz, CEO and director of equity research at FusionIQ.

...

Ritholtz said Clinton is unique in that she's "polarizing" and may not appeal to Wall Street. But he said a lot of Democrats on Wall Street are saying they could live with McCain in the White House and Republicans are saying that they could live with Obama.

Now you know that this can't possibly be true.... Hillary has been sent to us by the gods. She had nothing to do with killing anyone, firing tons of people in Travelgate, no shady business deals, etc. And when she cried just before the primary, it wasn't a calculated move, it was a genuine show of emotion....her first. Ever.

But it's all just spin. EVERYone loves Hillary, and we're just bitter old farts for saying otherwise.

The economy is the top issue right now among concerned voters. It will certainly come into play.
