It's been now 2 weeks since the greatest election in the history of the United States. Sorry for being sarcastic, but haven’t you enjoyed the media hype and the mud throwing during the election debates? Not to Mention that we have a president that love to grab pussycats…I wonder if Monica Lewinsky will apply again for a white house internship.
Ok, let me be serious for a moment Mr. Trump has won the elections and no the world hasn't gone into chaos. On contrary the stock markets seems to have taken the news with open arms. Since Trump has won there has been only a very short term fear and anxiety on the stock exchange. But as soon as Trump gave his first speech everyone calmed down and the markets has gone up ever since.
Is this normal? Am I the only one that finds this odd? I have been following the stock exchange for a long period of time. And after BREXIT I started to look closer at the US elections and it showed the same kind of patterns like the BREXIT surprise. Don’t let the media fool you, but don’t think that you can win from the big boys.
So, I was following the hype and I thought there will be a surprise just like BREXIT. And since every time Trump was leading the poles the markets reacted negatively I decided to throw some money at the stock markets betting that the markets will go down after a Trump win.
And I was right...big HOORAYS for me!!! I will at least make some profit on this historical election. WRONG!!! It lasted not even 24h and my positions were down. Donald Trump first speech was so calm and presidential, that the markets reacted positively to the news.
Okay wait a minute…how can people change their minds so quick. First all the media was against him and now he is really going to make America great again. If we look at the stock markets the answer is yes, since the stock markets are the reflection of a progressing economy.
Well all is okay the stocks are up again and we are all doing great. It doesn’t matter that all the countries in the world are drowning in debt or that we have negative interest rates...nope all is A-okay. As long as everyone thinks that everything is fine nothing will happen…ow ok ok…what a relief! I will go back to watch the prime time news and the media propaganda and start following the herd.
Thank you Mr. Trump you’ve made America great again and you haven’t even started your presidential term yet.
