I don’t know that we can draw any conclusions from these charts, but I thought it would be interesting to do the research since election day is just a couple weeks away.
These charts are for the SPY ETF (S&P 500) from August 1 to December 31 of each election year from 1996 to 2016.
Election Day: November 8, 2016
Election Day: November 6, 2012
Election Day: November 4, 2008
Election Day: November 2, 2004
Election Day: November 7, 2000
Election Day: November 5, 1996
Draw your own conclusions. And Vote!
