Will President Trump Crash the Stock Market? History Says This Could Come Next.
Trump's boom could face a perfect storm of challenges.
Overview
You can use a lot of words to describe Donald Trump's administration, but boring is not one of them. Since Trump's election victory in 2024, he has embarked on a series of unorthodox economic policies that are starting to reshape the U.S. economy and its relationship with the rest of the world.
Let's dig deeper into the reasons a downturn could be on the horizon.
Details
Some will call it luck; others will call it skill. But despite his unorthodox and volatile policy decisions, Trump's time in office has tended to correlate with strong stock market performance. In fact, the S&P 500 has already risen 27.6% since his election victory in November. This may have something to do with his corporate tax breaks and looser regulatory stance on energy policy and new industries like generative artificial intelligence (AI).
