The Brief:

  • Trump’s victory boosted U.S. stock markets, reflecting optimism for economic revival.
  • Promises of economic focus could ease inflation pressures on everyday essentials.
  • Market gains may benefit average Americans through potential job growth and investment returns.

In a surprising turn of events, the U.S. stock markets soared following the announcement that Donald Trump has defeated Vice President Kamala Harris, reclaiming presidency and winning crucial states such as Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. The Dow futures saw an impressive leap of over 1,000 points early Wednesday morning after Trump’s victory speech in Florida, where he expressed his gratitude towards his supporters and committed to rejuvenating the nation swiftly.

During this speech, Trump was joined by JD Vance, who is expected to be the new vice president. Vance highlighted their administration’s focus on economic revival as a cornerstone for their term. This election comes at a time when Americans have been grappling with high inflation rates affecting everyday essentials like food and gasoline, alongside increased costs in housing, construction materials, insurance, and record-high interest rates under the Biden-Harris administration.

Prior to Trump being declared the winner, stock futures were already on an upward trajectory from Tuesday’s rally which saw all three major market averages – Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite – gain over 1%, showcasing sector-wide gains.

Market analysts like Ken Fisher of Fisher Investments have suggested that elections reduce uncertainty which can lead to market stability or growth. As reflected in pre-election trends where both S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite grew substantially annually while Dow Jones followed suit with notable gains.

Trump’s support from influential figures such as Tesla’s Elon Musk and UFC CEO Dana White was also highlighted during his campaign. Furthermore, his victory seemed to have positively impacted cryptocurrency markets with Bitcoin reaching new heights above $73,000.

In his victory address from West Palm Beach, Florida, Trump recounted surviving two assassination attempts since July and interpreted his win as a divine intervention aimed at saving America. He promised a significant victory for Americans intending to “Make America Great Again” by securing wins across key battleground states leading to at least 315 electoral votes alongside winning the popular vote.
