Trump 2.0: Worst Stock Market Start in 75 Years—Comeback or Crisis?

Trump’s second term is off to a rough start on Wall Street, marking one of the worst first 50 days for any U.S. president since 1950.

According to Sundial Capital Research strategist Jason Goepfert, the S&P 500 has dropped about 6.4% since Trump 2.0 took office. Only two presidents had a worse start: Richard Nixon (-7.2%) and George W. Bush (-13.6%).

For comparison, the best-performing presidents in their first 50 days were John F. Kennedy (+9.4%), Barack Obama (+5.7%), and Bill Clinton (+4.2%).

While stock market performance isn’t always tied directly to politics, in this case, market volatility seems to be reflecting investor concerns—especially over tariffs and trade policies.

With Q1 of 2025 now in the books, where do you think the market is headed next? A dramatic rebound or more rollercoaster swings?

And what’s your take on Trump 2.0—any bold moves or surprises you expect next? 🚀📉

Fed Keeps Unchanged: Are 3 Rate Cut Estimates Too Optimistic?

In close co-operation with Tesla [Victory] to Wash the Markets like Never Before [Helpless].  There will Always be Winners 🏆 & Losers [Blush] in the Stock Markets.  Respect the Markets & follow your Rules 🙏. My view is Short Term most probably will drop 💧 further to the next level down 👇, another 3-5% minimum 🙏. Hold on to your Ride 🎢 [OMG]

    The S&P 500 has gone 639 consecutive trading days without a -3% decline. Will we see a daily move of -3% today?[Surprised]
