November 8 (election day) Dow slightly higher

As I recall, gloomy MSM commentators were talking about a huge drop in the Dow futures on election night, as it was becoming obvious that Trump was going to win. Trump was going to be a financial disaster they said.
I don’t know if that drop was even true, but it sure didn’t have a lasting effect.
The market gained for six straight days.
By 12/31/16, the market was already up over 1,400 points post
election.
