Several stocks could rise if market volatility scales back after Tuesday's U.S. presidential election, according to a Bank of America analysis.
Stock market volatility climbed ahead of the election, with the Cboe Volatility Index , known as Wall Street's "fear gauge," crossing 23 on Thursday.
But with the winner of the election decided, the VIX has eased to around 16 on Wednesday.
To react to this scenario, Bank of America screened for several lower-quality stocks inversely correlated to the VIX that could see a pop in their share prices.
Morgan Stanley revised its 2024-25 revenue estimates on NXP lower, expecting a period of stagnation in the automotive semiconductor market.
