HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_026572.txt

The J.P. Morgan View discusses how US elections have affected asset allocation, economic outlooks, and market risks. They believe that the equity market has priced out a Romney win scenario and that medium-term equities and credit are still overweight despite volatility caused by the fiscal cliff negotiations.
