It is shocking that stock market futures are booming,,,up over 1,000 points! Who would ever dreamed that? Unbelievable.
No link given.
The S&P 500 moved up from about 6800 in mid April to about 7800 in mid October. It’s been drifting down since then and is about 7600 as of this post.

Not true. Space X is up and Tesla is down only $5.32 as of now.
Boy, this is a nice pleasant surprise. Of all the bad news, I thought for sure the stock market would tank. You are right the markets do like a split government.
1 percent change in one day is noise not trend.
At most tariff rebates account for a %1 of EPS. It’s virtually meaningless to companies. They just adjust. On the other hand it could help pay for government. Tariffs are actually a great solution (while cutting taxes). Maybe the Democrats will dig into the numbers and see that this can pay for their goodies. Trump should trade a tariff regime for Medicare for all.

the stock market has always loved divided government. It means, nothing gets done, which is predictable and wall street loves predictable.
From a legislation perspective little is likely to happen for the next two years. Businesses and markets thrive on predictability.
Now if the Dems get the presidency in 2028, look out.
I just made $14k 10 minutes into the opening. The results last night musta been good.
Markets are as incoherent and irrational as the majority of voters in this country, voters with zero critical thinking ability.
What gridlock. Government is 100% libtard. Good run America. Americastan on the horizon
Yeah, everything is up except for two notable names - TSLA and SPACEX.
The Rats are going to go after Musk with a vengeance.

It is only fair that only our products have tarrifs?
Agreed, there is now a zero chance of a conservative being appointed to the Supreme Court now!
They haven't for the past 100 years??? LOL!
There was waaaaay too much that smacked of manufactured results, cognitive dissonance and pent up dissatisfaction in this very lopsided election. Way too many races were outliers with 10, 15 and 20+% spreads. As well, the size and enthusiasm of attendees at Trump's many rallies seem to have dissolved into vaporous race results. The Left had internecine wars going on, yet almost none of that was to be "smelled" or "tasted" in numeric election results.
The Left's prediction so Trump resorting to election manipulations (coming mostly from HRClinton) was 100% a falsehood, showing ZERO evidence.
I think where is "ends" will be a welcome, distant result, but the middle part greatly concerns me. The Left's paid-for foot soldiers will be used to wreak an incredible amount of destruction, mayhem and killing!
Trump cannot simply allow a one-party take-over by marauders and coupsters that will have been shown to have manipulated essentially all the ballot totals.
The markets like stability in the economy and on policy and the sentiment is that that’s more likely to occur. Time will tell.
All the broad indexes are up, currently about 2% or better.
The Bushie’s are the reason that Texas stepped in this SH it.
Traitor Corn_on took the money and soiled our great state.
