On July 22, according to CCTV News, on July 21 local time, US President Biden announced his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential election. In a letter posted on his personal social media that day, Biden said that he had intended to seek re-election, but in the best interests of the Democratic Party and the United States, he decided to withdraw from the presidential campaign and will focus on completing his presidential duties during his term.
Jack McIntyre, global fixed income portfolio manager at Brandywine Global Investment Management, said Biden's withdrawal from the race is good for the market
Overall, Biden dropping out of the race is at least temporarily positive for the market, and it could be positive for the bond market, especially given where we are in the business cycle and, more importantly, where we are in economic growth and inflation. I suspect that if the situation ultimately leads us to divided government, that would be a good thing for the market.
