With Donald Trump re-elected as the 47th President of the United States, investors are closely examining how his policies could impact the economy and their portfolios. Early responses in global stock markets suggest that investors anticipate a Trump presidency, coupled with a Republican Senate, will bring much of what he promised on the campaign trail—a business-friendly, pro-growth, low-regulation economy.
