I’m not sure that’s right. Stock market futures were in a free-fall late on Election Night as it became more obvious that Trump was going to win.

Markets don’t like uncertainty. When the election was shifting from an expected Hillary win to Trump, the markets reacted negatively to the possibilities of an uncertain outcome... hanging chad time?! They quieted down again quickly when it became clear Trump had won it outright.

After Election Day in 2016, Wall Street figured out pretty quickly that Donald Trump wasn’t going to be anywhere near as disruptive as advertised. Heck — he even hired a Goldman Sachs Democrat as his Treasury Secretary.
