Donald Trump will be president and stocks will rally: O'Leary
CNBC ^ | Tom DiChristopher

Donald Trump is bound for the White House, and when he reaches the Oval Office, stocks will "go straight up," said Kevin O'Leary, chairman of O'Leary Financial Group.

*snip*

Last month, Blackstone Group Chairman and CEO Stephen Schwarzman, a longtime Republican, told CNBC's "Squawk Box" that if he were faced with a choice between Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, he would "be really trying to figure out where we go."

Though he said he would opt for Trump in that scenario.

But O'Leary said he does not believe corporate America is truly afraid of a Trump presidency.

"He wants to solve the problems that we really have here in terms of straightening out the tax code, which I think is a big hold-back on these equity markets right now. It doesn't allow our companies to compete," he said.

Recovering our Republic through the Free Market using small steps.

Liberty means nothing without (1) free market and (2) defense of the same.

I don't think they should be. If Trump manages to push his tax plan through then it'll result in billions of extra dollars for stock buy-backs, dividend increases, and acquisitions of other companies. Those will likely cause stock prices to rise.

O’Leary plays a conservative on BNN but then takes public money to shill on the state broadcaster.

We are one domestic terror attack from a Donald Trump presidency.
