This video takes you on a quick tour of past US government shutdowns, breaking down what actually happens when Washington grinds to a halt and why markets tend to wobble. You’ll get a crash course in the history of shutdowns and how different asset classes—from Wall Street’s favorite S&P 500 to underdog safe havens like gold and Bitcoin—have reacted.
By crunching the data and spotting trends, it shows you why investors often sprint to “store-of-value” plays during political turmoil and what that could mean for stocks, the broader economy, and your portfolio if—and when—the next shutdown hits.
