It's been a bloodbath in the markets over the last few hours with the Mexican peso suffering particularly badly as Donald Trump edges ever closer to the White House.
The way markets have traded over the last couple of days and positioned ahead of the vote, you would think the election was going to be a routine victory for Clinton despite her name being dragged through the mud during the FBI's email investigation and the anti-establishment protest vote becoming ever more prevalent around the globe. Brexit should have been a warning for the markets and instead, it appears four months is more than long enough for such a historic event to be forgotten.
While the election still remains too close to call and is far from over, the momentum is strongly with Trump at this stage and the way voting has gone elsewhere, it's difficult to envisage an outcome that doesn't end with the Republican nominee in the White House.
