The Daily's Verdict

This author has a mixed reputation for journalistic standards. It is advisable to fact-check, scrutinize for bias, and check for conflicts of interest before relying on the author's reporting.

Bias

88%

Examples:

  • Look no further than the oil and gas sector for a place to position your portfolio if you believe Trump will win.
  • The U.S. hydrocarbon industry is a sure beneficiary, and prospects of a corporate tax cut will boost equities in general (but hurt the long end of the Treasury curve).

Conflicts of Interest

100%

Examples:

  • Look no further than the oil and gas sector for a place to position your portfolio if you believe Trump will win.

Contradictions

88%

Examples:

  • A Democratic win would likely result in stable but disappointing price moves, while a Trump win would bring higher volatility
  • Donald Trump's policy agenda would involve doubling down on aspects of his first presidency if he wins re-election

Deceptions

45%

Examples:

  • That would mean a simultaneous shock to the labour force and supply chain that would devastate the supply side of the economy and, in all likelihood, be highly inflationary.
  • The ability of the White House to pursue its agenda will hinge on the makeup of both houses of Congress.
