Intro
Markets Celebrate Trump Victory with Record-Breaking Surge
It’s a Rare Day for Wall Street
U.S. futures have skyrocketed after Donald Trump’s victory as the 47th President of the United States. The Dow futures shot up 1,242 points (+2.93%) to 43,623, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq not far behind, jumping 2.22% and 1.62%, respectively.
A Republican majority in the Senate further bolstered investor enthusiasm, while Trump’s pro-business stance sent financials, small caps, and crypto-related stocks soaring. Notably, Tesla surged over 14% as Elon Musk, a vocal Trump supporter, cheered the news.
The early action had Treasury yields and the dollar moving up alongside, with Bitcoin rocketing to nearly $74,000, gaining 7% on Trump’s pro-crypto attitude. The market reaction sets a solid stage for what could be a historic trading day.
Election Fallout and Market Moves
Investors are betting big on a business-friendly White House and lighter regulatory pressures. Small-cap stocks, financials, and energy companies led the surge, with asset managers like Blackstone, KKR, and BlackRock enjoying double-digit gains in early action.
As for the 10-year Treasury, it saw a sharp 17-basis point rise to 4.46%, while the dollar index (DXY) jumped 1.7% to 105.2, sending the euro tumbling by over 2% to around 1.07. Even the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) got crushed by 22%, signaling the market’s newfound optimism.
Global Markets and Pre-Election Rally
Tuesday’s close saw the S&P 500 gain 1.23% to 5,782.86, the Dow up over 1% to 42,221.88, and the Nasdaq rising 1.43% to 18,439.17. All eleven sectors in the S&P turned green, with Consumer Discretionary leading the charge. Asian markets had a mixed response overnight, with Japan’s Nikkei Index jumping over 1,000 points to 39,480, while Europe’s German DAX and FTSE 100 climbed higher in morning trade.

Commodities and Currencies
Oil prices have pulled back after Tuesday’s gains, with WTI crude down $1.09 to $70.90 and Brent falling $1.05 to $74.48. Gold, meanwhile, tanked by $33.50, settling at $2,716.20 per ounce, with investors moving into equities and away from safe-haven assets post-election.
Sector Highlights
Consumer Goods: Grocery Outlet (GO) slightly missed revenue estimates for Q3 but still raised its FY forecast, while Revolve Group (RVLV) posted stronger-than-expected Q3 sales of $283 million.
Energy: Devon Energy (DVN) beat Q3 earnings estimates and revised its production forecast higher for Q4, expecting a 13% production increase.
Financials: Regional banks rallied on expectations of less regulation, with Assurant Inc. (AIZ) doubling its FY24 EPS growth outlook.
Healthcare: CVS Health (CVS) exceeded revenue expectations in Q3 and made leadership changes, while Exact Sciences (EXAS) trimmed its FY24 guidance amid tighter cost controls.
Industrials & Materials: International Flavors (IFF) raised its revenue guidance, while Limbach Holdings (LMB) beat earnings estimates and upped its FY revenue forecast.
Tech & Media: Microchip Technology (MCHP) exceeded earnings expectations, with a dividend boost to 45.5 cents per share. Lumen Technology (LUMN), however, missed earnings with an unexpected loss.
Final Thoughts
With record-breaking futures pointing to a historic day, Wall Street is poised for a pro-business rally under the new Trump administration. While global and sector-specific impacts will continue to unfold, all eyes are on this dramatic start and the potential for major policy shifts in the coming days.
