• “Stock Market Predicts Defeat For President Obama.”

— Headline, Investor’s Business Daily, yesterday.

• “As the probability of President Barack Obama’s reelection grows, state and local officials across the country are tallying up the potential ramifications of a second term.”

— Lede of Joel Kotkin’s Thursday article at Forbes, titled, “Who Stands The Most To Win – And Lose – From A Second Obama Term.”

Not surprisingly, I find the first scenario much more interesting to contemplate, but your mileage may vary.
