US Midterm Elections Could Affect India-US Relations, Trade, and Markets
The upcoming US midterm elections on November 3 will determine control of Congress and influence President Donald Trump's political capital, with potential impacts on US domestic policy and foreign relations, including ties with India. Experts highlight possible effects on trade, H-1B visas, tariffs, and immigration policies. While a Republican win may maintain current policies, a Democratic majority could increase congressional oversight and affect legislative agendas. Market analysts note that Indian equities may respond more to global factors like oil prices and bond yields than direct US policy shifts.
