During election periods:

  • Investors tend to delay big decisions due to uncertainty.
  • Businesses experience slower sales, especially in real estate and imports.
  • Some companies reduce stock or avoid expansion until the political climate stabilizes.
  • Exchange rate fluctuations often increase due to speculation.
  • After elections, business activity usually picks up once stability returns.
