Summary

Analyzing the stock market's relationship with elections, the detailed overview explores historical trends, economic forecasts, and sector performance, advising long-term investment and patience during market shifts. The guidance emphasizes fundamental research and strategic decisions for investors amid political fluctuations, offering actionable insights for navigating market volatility.


Introduction

Joe Biden played a significant role in the Global Stock Market reaching an all-time high. 

His election as the US President in 2021 led to an impressive increase, contributing a massive $2 trillion to the global stocks' overall value. 

However, it's worth noting that despite this boost, economic challenges and negative sentiments ended up wiping out those gains. This just goes to show the substantial impact that world leaders and elections can have on the dynamic nature of the stock market.

Historical Analysis

Coming to India being growing country generally has been on rising trend irrespective of who win the elections?

As we approach general elections, it's common to witness heightened volatility in the stock markets due to uncertainties surrounding election results and potential policy changes. 

Taking a closer look at historical market trends, we observe a robust average return of 29.1% one year before elections and 6% in the month leading up to them. These figures highlight a pattern of strong market performance in the periods preceding elections. 

Of course, there are exceptions, such as the notable case in 2009, marked by a substantial pre-year market decline of 24.9%, which, interestingly, was compensated by a significant 26.8% surge in the month following the elections.

Therefore, despite uncertainties and a tendency for a “wait-and-see” approach amongst investors pre-election, historical data suggests the market has generally performed well during these times.

Performance in 6 months  after Election in last 4 Election: 

Year

Power

Consequence

2004

UPA

The Sensex shot up by 13% after the public viewed Dr Manmohan Singh and P Chidambaram as reform-friendly.

2009

UPA

Sensex remained relatively stable, aligning with no significant policy changes compared to the previous UPA-1 government.

2014

NDA

The Modi government, elected in 2014, initiated impactful policy reforms like fiscal consolidation and inflation control. This strategic approach drove the Sensex up by a significant nine percentage points.

2019

NDA

Unfortunately, the post-2019 election period saw a decline in GDP growth rate and subdued market performance. This can be attributed to both global economic challenges and a slowdown in domestic consumption(NBFC Crisis in India).

 

What is the outlook for the Indian economy going forward?

Now, let's take a closer look at the political landscape in India from 1980 to 2023. During this period, the government underwent 11 changes, with coalitions forming eight times. 

However, since 2014, the BJP has consistently held a clear majority. Over the years, from 1980, India has seen an average real GDP growth of 6.2%, and the Sensex has demonstrated compound annual growth rates of 9.5% in dollar terms and an impressive 15.5% in rupee terms up to August 2023.

There's some speculation about the 2024 general elections potentially impacting the market. This speculation arises from a unified strategy adopted by the opposition against the BJP.

While coalition governance in India facilitates consensus-driven decisions, fostering significant reforms, it does come with a limitation. It somewhat restrains the pace of economic growth compared to countries like China. 

The long-term projection for India's real GDP growth sits between 6.0% and 6.5%, indicating a corresponding 11%-12% nominal GDP growth. This, coupled with factors such as corporate productivity, the impact of AI, and ongoing influences on equity markets, sets the stage for continued double-digit nominal returns over the next two decades. 

The crucial advice for long-term investors remains steadfast: consider investing in India for sustained growth opportunities.

Which sectors outperform and underperform in Elections?   

Let's break down the historical trends and current market scenario:

1. Historical Trends:

   - Pharma and the auto industry have shown robust performance post-election periods.

   - Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) and Private Banks have been dependable performers based on economics.

   - On the flip side, the IT and metals sectors have tended to underperform during these times.

2. Current Trends:

   - Midcap and smallcap stocks have already seen substantial gains.

   - However, some large-cap stocks, including Reliance, HDFC Bank, and Kotak Bank, are currently underperforming.

   - From my analysis, it appears that large-cap stocks might drive a rally in the broader Nifty market. Given the recent breakthrough of the 20,000 mark, there's optimism that Nifty could reach 21,000 or even 22,000.

3. Promising Sectors:

   - Based on my technical analysis, I anticipate positive movements in sectors such as "API/Pharma companies," "Speciality Chemicals," and "Textiles."

What should investors do?

Absolutely, let's simplify and rephrase those insightful investment tips:

1. Think Long Term, Not Short Term:

   - When it comes to investing, focus on the long term, especially before and after elections. Short-term market volatility is common during elections, but as the voting day approaches, the market tends to stabilize with a clearer political landscape. Investing before the election allows you to seize positive shifts in market sentiment and potential rallies post-election.

2. Stay Calm During Market Fluctuations:

   - If the stock market takes a hit after the election, resist the urge to engage in panic selling. Instead, align your actions with long-term goals. Panic selling could result in missed recovery opportunities. Take a moment to reassess your investment plan, considering how election results impact your portfolio, and make adjustments as needed.

3. Capitalizing on Post-Election Reforms:

   - Elections often bring about policy changes that can affect specific sectors. By investing before the election, you position yourself to benefit from sector-specific opportunities arising from proposed policies. These policies not only impact markets directly but also influence the value of the Indian rupee in the foreign exchange market. A positive election outcome can attract foreign capital, strengthening the currency.

4. India's Growth Story:

   - India's growth story is hard to ignore. Foreign investors in Indian stocks can benefit from potential rupee appreciation, enhancing returns. With increasing confidence in India's economy, substantial foreign investments indicate a positive outlook. Investing in the stock market exposes you to the long-term growth potential of Indian companies and sectors, delivering significant returns as the economy expands.

5. Take Action in Present:

   - While some may prefer a wait-and-see approach, successful investors understand the importance of taking action in the present. Don't miss out on opportunities; strategic decisions made now can pave the way for long-term success in the dynamic world of investments.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it's vital to differentiate between short-term ups and downs and the long-term value, especially when investing around elections. Although market sentiment might waver temporarily, concentrating on the core fundamentals and the genuine intrinsic value of your investments is key.

Conducting thorough research and relying on solid analysis enables you to make informed decisions that stand the test of time. 

Additionally, for those who prefer a more straightforward approach, considering index funds or index ETFs can provide broader market returns, making it particularly beneficial for layman investors. 

So, whether you're navigating the excitement of election seasons or the regular market fluctuations, staying grounded in fundamental principles can be your compass in the investment journey.
