Asian shares were little changed in muted trading Monday amid widespread uncertainty over what the U.S. presidential election will portend for markets and economic policy.

Investors remain worried over surging cases and deaths related to COVID-19, especially in parts of the U.S. and Europe, and the implications for trade, tourism and economic activity.

U.S. stock indexes closed mostly higher last week. They bounced between small gains and losses, a familiar pattern recently as traders keep an eye on negotiations between Republican and Democratic leaders in Washington over more economic aid. At issue is a huge virus relief bill that would send another US$1,200 direct payment to most Americans, restart bonus unemployment benefits, fund additional testing and vaccines, provide aid to schools and allocate money to state and local governments, a Democratic priority.

On Friday, the S&P 500 rose 0.3% to 3,465.39, its second straight gain. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.1%, to 28,335.57. The Nasdaq composite, which is heavily weighted with technology stocks, gained 0.4% to 11,548.28, while the Russell 2000 index rose 0.6% to 1,640.50.

This AI pollster has predicted the chances of a win by Biden and TrumpPolly Pollster, the artificial intelligence pollster that correctly predicted the Liberal’s minority win in the 2019 Canadian election, has found that U.S. President Donald Trump has a slim chance of winning the White House this time around. Archive this so all and sundry get all the attention they deserve in 2 weeks. This means nothing. Go vote. The headline is misleading / the article does NOT have a prediction. It says Trump has a less than 8% chance of winning. That's a polling statistic, not a prediction. Care to either edit your article or edit your headline / do better?

This American astronaut just voted from space. Here's how she did itNASA astronaut Kate Rubins was able to cast her vote for the U.S. election from the International Space Station last week. Definitely an absentee ballot! Is she was black, republicans woulda found a way to create a 10hr long lineup in space. It's easier to vote from space than it is in Georgia or Texas.
