If the stock market is in any way tied to presidential polls it's in for a rough ride until Novermber.

At this point, the Presidential polls have nothing to do with the stock market or the current economy. There may be a case if the polls were heavily favoring one candidate or the other. Depending on how the market viewed the candidate, it would react. But that is not the case here.
