Its pretty much telling you why you should go with these certain
stock picks if mcCain would of won.
In a study by Michael Cooper, associate professor of finance at the University of Utah, along with assistant professors Huseyin Gulen of Purdue and Alexei Ovtchinnikov of Vanderbilt University; it was found that the stocks of companies that contributed to Congressional candidates had better share price returns than those that didn't. The difference was significant as well, with an average premium in returns of 6% per year.
Based on the theory that a company or its stakeholders will contribute to the campaign of a candidate that will help their business, it makes sense to invest in the companies that have, either directly or indirectly, made contributions to the candidate that you believe will win. If Senator John McCain wins, companies that supported him should, theoretically, do better than the companies that made contributions to Democrat nominee Barack Obama. To help with this, we have created the "John McCain Stock Index", which is made up of five companies whose major stakeholders have made contributions to McCain's campaign. We have used contributors who made the 2007 Forbes 400 list, to make sure that we are using contributors with influence
