On Wednesday, share prices and bond yields experienced a notable surge as the Republican party secured control of the Senate, and Donald Trump led in the still-incomplete election vote counts.

Although full results from Tuesday's election remain pending, investors are already anticipating a shift in policy due to potential Republican legislative influence.
