The Trump Effect
Charles Stanley, a leading investment management firm, shared a Trump on markets update today.
We summarise this as:
A Trump presidency will likely focus on reducing the Washington bureaucracy, relaxing regulations, and encouraging domestic energy production. There will be cuts to income and corporation taxes, with a push to lower government spending while still maintaining “America First” trade policies, including high tariffs on imports, especially from China. Trump’s foreign policy may aim to rebuild alliances in the Middle East, limit aid to Ukraine, and pressure NATO allies to contribute more to defence.
Brooks Wealth broadly shares these expectations for a pro-business, growth-focused economic agenda under Trump, though markets will need to adapt to potential higher inflation and deficit impacts.
We will watch closely as this unfolds.
Best Regards
