Most of the media focus is on the White House battle between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. But what investors really need to focus on is who controls Congress.

On the latest episode of Capital Gains, Jeffrey Hirsch, Hirsch Holdings CEO and editor in chief of Stock Trader’s Almanac, joins Yahoo Finance’s Rachelle Akuffo, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and senior columnist Rick Newman to share his thoughts on the stock market two months out from election day, and provide insight over which candidate would better impact the economy. Hirsch believes it all comes down to control of congress.

“If you are trying to decide who you’d rather have in office based upon your stock market performance, you want a Democratic president and a Republican Congress,” Hirsch explains. “You have a more conservative body holding the purse strings - a little more progressive thinking coming up with new ideas in the White House.”
