Originally posted by Rank outsider I wouldn't worry too much. Stock markets are worse predictors of the future than pollsters.
Of course. Stock markets are not meant to be future predictors. What they are is opinion reflectors. I guess if enough investors are Trump supporters the markets might even go up. But the reality is that most of the world knows Trump is bad, so almost all international investors will be downgrading the US.

Golly, that would be horrible if the US started taking care of itself instead of policing the world, huh.
Just think: if we weren't sending our young men and women into harm's way, weren't spending trillions on unwinnable wars, we could put those energies and efforts into stuff right here at home.
Profitable stuff.

Its been less than 24 hours. What were you expecting? An instant crash?
I am concerned about the year ahead until the inevitable collapse of the Trump presidency.

An instant crash is precisely what I would have expected.
