To say that politics doesn’t have anything to do with the market is nonsense.

The real issue is figuring out how the two are intertwined.

That boils down to policy.

Immediately, the Federal Reserve comes to mind … The Fed can implement an expansionary economic policy, which leads to stock market growth.

But that’s a lot of mumbo-jumbo.

I want to focus instead on how specific government policy affects different sectors of the stock market.

For example: A government wants to expand road and bridge development … in turn, construction companies and concrete manufacturers see their stock prices explode higher.

We will see something similar after Joe Biden is sworn in as the President of the United States on January 20.

Biden has promised to ramp up spending on clean energy to reduce the country’s carbon footprint.

I’ve found an ETF that tracks companies investing in clean energy. It’s grown more than 323% in the last nine months.

In this episode of The Bull & The Bear, I tell you why it’s worth adding shares of this clean energy ETF to your portfolio for 2021.
