QCP Capital’s latest market update highlights the influence of the upcoming U.S. elections on financial markets, with a particular focus on cryptocurrencies like bitcoin (BTC). Analysts predict increased volatility as the elections near, with potential outcomes shaping investor sentiment and price movements.

QCP Capital‘s analysts observe that the U.S. elections are now driving market dynamics, with just two weeks to go. Betting markets are showing a significant lead for Donald Trump over Kamala Harris, which has fueled discussions around new economic policies. The market update notes that a possible Trump presidency could lead to increased tariffs and tax reductions, contributing to a rally in the U.S. dollar and pushing U.S. bond yields higher.

The QCP update further emphasizes the importance of upcoming U.S. economic data, particularly the Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report, which will be released next Friday. As the last labor market report before the Federal Reserve’s next meeting, QCP’s analysts believe it could shape expectations on future interest rate decisions, adding to market uncertainty and potential shifts in asset prices.

“All eyes are on the NFP release next Friday as uncertainty around the labor market persists,” QCP said. “As the last NFP report before the next Fed meeting, it will play a critical role in shaping expectations for the Fed’s next move on interest rates.”
