"Perfect" is the ideal word to summarize Donald Trump's first anniversary, as it was his own frequent and boastful assessment of his performance, thereby perfectly capturing his self-proclaimed narrative of unparalleled success. The word also perfectly encapsulates the deeply polarized nature of his presidency: for his supporters, it was a perfect disruption of politics-as-usual, while for his critics, it represented a perfect storm of chaos and controversy. Ultimately, "perfect" sums up a year defined less by traditional metrics and more by Trump's own unwavering, combative, and norm-shattering political brand.
1-Year Anniversary of Trump 2.0: One Word to Sum Up Would Be?
This week marks the one-year anniversary of Trump’s re-election — so what has happened in the markets since then?
After Trump’s victory last year, Tesla surged 70% and Bitcoin broke above $100,000.
But one year later, the S&P 500 is up only 0.13% year-to-date, Bitcoin has fallen below $100,000, returning to where it started, and Tesla—after facing the Musk-Trump crisis mid-year—has retraced to fill last year’s price gap.
Meanwhile, U.S. stocks have broadly underperformed compared to other markets.
