I would call it disappointed. Everyone went into his 2nd term thinking it should replicate his 1st term but he did many unexpected things like tariffs and then taco. While stock markets like HK and China rising has allowed me to profit, I think if he is collaborative, the US market would have rose along at a wider margin too. That would definitely make me happier.


Trump will definitely try to push the stock market higher and one way is to push the Fed to cut rates faster. This will not only boost optimism in the stock market, it will also reduce the load of the US’ massive debt. Moving into his mid term, he will have to make sure the market rally along. Eccentric as he may be, he also values the performance of the stock market and that was his election promise- to make America great again! I think the financial sector might be a mixed bag. The dual tailwinds might benefit the bigger banks but would still be dependent on the overall market and ensuring bad debts are kept low.
