Whatever changes you think investors might react to need to be discounted by the likelihood of them being in a bill passed by Congress.

It’s not something I know a lot about, but it seems likely that Congress will make substantial changes to Biden’s proposals?




Changes depend on time. Biden is past the early magic 100 days and now members of the house (and 1/3rd the senate) are realizing that they need to prepare for their re-election campaign in less than a year. The longer things go on the more concerned they will be.

The democrats have the government today. The most democrat heavy handed set of bills will ensure that republicans take a veto-proof majority of both houses. Different levels of watered down will have different effects. There is a reasonable chance that no matter what they do they will lose the house next election (even passing bills that the republicans would like to author but wouldn't dare!), but the exact set of laws they pass will have a big effect on both who shows up, and how voters change their votes.
