**New York, NY** – Despite giving former President Donald Trump higher marks on handling the economy and taxes, a majority of millionaire investors plan to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming election, according to a new UBS survey.

The survey, which polled 971 investors with at least $1 million in investible assets, found that 57% plan to vote for Harris while 43% plan to vote for Trump.

While millionaire investors rated the economy as their top concern, with 84% citing it as the most important issue in the election, they were divided on who is better equipped to address it. 51% favored Trump, while 49% chose Harris.

However, the survey revealed that millionaire investors are more confident in Harris’s handling of other issues, including Social Security and healthcare.

Despite the political divide, millionaire investors are bullish on the economy and the stock market. A majority (55%) expressed high confidence in the economy, and three-quarters are optimistic about their portfolio returns in the next six months.

The survey also found that many wealthy investors plan to adjust their portfolios based on the election outcome. Those who favor a Trump victory believe defense and energy stocks will perform well, while those who anticipate a Harris win are more optimistic about healthcare, sustainable investing, and tech companies.
