When Politics Rattle Wall Street, Smart Operators Focus on What They Can Control

Zohran Mamdani’s recent primary victory in New York City has sent waves through Wall Street. Described as a democratic socialist and vocal critic of private equity, his win has some in finance rattled—and others outright depressed. The broader concern? A shifting political climate that may challenge entrenched business interests, regulation, and traditional economic models.

But while some are debating the ideological implications, others are asking the more practical question: What can we actually do right now to protect our operations, cash flow, and supply chains from disruption?

The answer: focus on what you can control—and that starts with the mechanics of your business.

What’s Often Overlooked? The Messy Reality of Purchase Orders

Every economic shock or policy shift—whether it’s tariffs, regulations, or political turnover—eventually trickles down into the supply chain. Orders get revised, budgets adjusted, sourcing strategies rethought. And buried beneath it all? Purchase orders (POs) trying to keep up with the chaos.

Even in the best-run companies, about 2% of POs contain errors—mismatched SKUs, wrong quantities, incorrect delivery addresses. When markets are steady, you might absorb it. But when volatility spikes, those errors turn into real losses.
