Donald Trump's presidential win has rallied stocks and routed bonds, especially Treasuries, according to a recent article by GlobeSt.com sister publication, ALM's Think Advisor. But how long those moves and sentiments last will depend on what Trump actually does once he takes office.
“Markets are going through a big Trump rethink,” says Carl Weinberg, chief economist at High Frequency Economics and co-host of a webinar on its implications for the U.S. and Global Economy. Markets are hoping Trump will be practical and market friendly but don't really know yet if that will be the case, according to Weinberg. “We have a lot of questions, not a lot of answers.”
Trump offered policy pledges during the campaign and recently released a plan for his first 100 days, but Weinberg advised, “Don't take his campaign rhetoric and specific proposals too literally.”
He and Jim O'Sullivan, HFE's chief U.S. economist, discussed several key items on the Trump policy agenda, the article says, however, they note that investors should be watching now because of their potential impact on the U.S. economy and financial markets.
