Trump Wins White House, What's Next?

Man Who Called Nvidia at $1.10 Says Buy This Now...

  • Nvidia and Google are invested in this company

  • And its tech is found in products from Samsung and Google

Donald Trump won the presidential election on Tuesday night this week.

Republicans won the Senate and will likely win the House.

The market gapped and closed up 2.5% at all-time highs on the news. The Nasdaq was up 2.95%, and the Dow was up 3.5%.

The Shiller PE is now over 37, just shy of its second-highest reading ever. Animal spirits are alive and well.

But it’s not wholly without reason. Trump is expected to make current rates permanent and extend further tax cuts for workers and corporations, which should raise corporate profits.

When Republicans control The White House and Congress, the average annual stock market return is 11.70%.

What happened last time Trump was in office with a similar supermajority to start his term? The market rose just over 36% in 14 months, from election week in November 2016 until the correction began in January 2018.

What were the results over his entire term? In his four years in office, the market rose 67.8% or 13.8% CAGR.

The best-performing sectors today were financials (up 6.08%), industrials (up 3.92%), and energy (up 3.76%). These sectors could be good bets for companies that will benefit most from Trump’s term.
