Everyone knows that markets reflect confidence and uncertainty causes market disruption.

My theory is that Trump and his team have intentionally been slow-walking the release of information because if he went on national TV and laid out the full extent of corruption in government, stock prices would fall so fast it would make Black Friday look like a bear. Yet the information IS going to come out, it has to, so they’re testing with controlled releases to gradually condition people (including investors). What we saw since last Friday is proof of market resilience. That will be important moving forward, because this cannot be a bump-free ride. But if confidence is not lost, the bumps will be smoothed out over time.
