Investors are rallying in U.S. stocks and risk assets post-Trump’s victory, boosting Bitcoin, Tesla, the U.S. dollar, and small-cap stocks. Hopes for a stronger economy and lower taxes are driving this “Trump trade” surge. Bitcoin has risen over 30% since the election, with assets in the iShares Bitcoin Trust surging to $41 billion.

Investors are flocking to areas expected to benefit from the Trump trade, with leveraged ETFs seeing increased interest. Tesla’s market value has surged over $300 billion amid speculation about Elon Musk’s influence in the new administration. Small-cap stocks could benefit from Trump’s proposed tariffs and a stronger dollar.

While Trump’s victory has led to market optimism, caution is advised as some trades may be overextended. Long-term stock market returns depend on economic conditions and earnings growth. The U.S. economy remains robust, with inflation nearing the Fed’s target and earnings on the rise. Investors are urged to consider the broader economic landscape alongside short-term gains.
