Impact on Financial markets: Political and economic events can have an effect on the financial markets.  This is more so considering that this is a major world event and one which the whole world is watching closely. The impact would result in certain instruments to rise in value and others to drop.

Volatility: Market is generally more volatile during presidential elections where the result is uncertain, meaning there is no one candiate leading the polls or clearly would win. Nonetheless, even if there is a clear lead in the initial polls, final result would not be known till the last minute. Hence, under such uncertainty, market volatility is expected to increase.
