Nasdaq futures are screaming higher as bookmakers lean toward a Trump presidency. The distribution of possible outcomes has changed and there are a few reasons for traders to be bullish for Nasdaq.
For a start, the Democrats have pushed anti-competitive regulation for years. Just last month, a Democratic panel issued proposals to break-up tech giants. The chance of this happening just got marked down.
Secondly, S&P futures are up 1.7%. It’s likely to get a boost for the candidates dispersion of tax views. Chance of Biden tax increases just went down, while for a Trump tax cut, they just went up.
Thirdly, with the Ant IPO on hold, where’s that money going? Some suspect it can potentially go straight back into tech names for the short-term.
Lastly, a Trump win would mean an ‘as you were’ approach to investing, allowing further Nasdaq outperformance.
