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 945 AM in New York, the down is slightly up. You probably don't need to sell all of your stocks.

The US currency has barely dropped. Stop overreacting.

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.

Currency and stocks are inversely related. Once again your lack of economic knowledge shows through.

An instant crash is precisely what I would have expected.
