Average 12-month returns were +6.5% after Democratic flips and +12.9% after Republican flips across 8 US midterms from 1986-2022 where at least one chamber of Congress changed control.
But red or blue, the S&P 500 finished green a year later mid-terms. Every time in this sample.

The first thing customers always ask us about is the protection of their assets when investing with @Vested_finance and rightfully so. Today it is all the more important to talk about what makes our ecosystem robust and secure.
Over the years we have built four layers of safeguards:
SIPC Protection: We are ourselves a FINRA and SIPC member in the US. This provides each Vested customer account with insurance protection of up to $500,000. It is important to understand that this is independent of our clearing broker's SIPC membership and covers the risk of Vested's failure directly. No India-based platform is a direct US Broker Dealer and hence no other platform is able to provide such protection
Regulatory Oversight: We operate regulated entities in the US and have recently received licenses in GIFT City, bringing additional oversight and accountability to our operations. One thing we have repeatedly mentioned - when investing globally it is not enough for the underlying clearing broker (likes of Alpaca, Drivewealth, Viewtrade, IBKR) to be regulated, the platform through which you invest needs to be regulated and accountable as well
Account Security: Each account has multiple layers of customer-facing authentication, including additional OTP verification before trading, device monitoring, and automated security checks
Continuous Monitoring: We also operate real-time monitoring of suspicious transactions and technology infrastructure to identify and respond to potential threats rapidly during trading hours. We also undertake regular third-party audits of our systems from CERT-IN empaneled vendors
No system can eliminate every risk, but protecting our customers' investments has and will always remain a top priority for us.
We have written a detailed blog explaining these four layers and what they mean for Vested customers. Read here: vestedfinance.com/blog/how-s…
