What a day. The local market took a dip before bouncing back in the afternoon as Trump's chances improved. Talk about deja vu all over again! - a podcast by ausbiz

The ASX 200 closed down 0.07% led by tech and industrials. Futures were also up which, depending on whether you think the election result will be contested or not, was due to the tech sector breathing a sigh of relief at the prospect of a Trump win or hedge funds unwinding trades in anticipation of a contested result. The AUD jumped to US72.2cents this morning before dropping more than 1.5% this afternoon to now sit at 71.06 cents.
