Trump has appealed to crypto traders during his campaign, attending a bitcoin conference and promising to appoint a crypto advisory council and replace Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler. Blockworks co-founder Jason Yanowitz sits down with Wealth! Host Brad Smith to discuss what a Trump victory means for the crypto industry. "From an investor perspective, I mean, the market has responded well," Yanowitz says, nodding to bitcoin's fresh record high. He adds, "Zooming out on a longer-term time horizon, the most important thing that the industry has been requesting from founders like myself inside of the industry is more clear regulations and more clear guidance on how to actually build a crypto company in the United States. And that's, I think, the thing that I'm the most optimistic about." Yanowitz tells Yahoo Finance, "I think the SEC chair definitely needs to change," noting, "I think it's important about the specific SEC chair and more about the things that they will do" regarding crypto regulation.

Mackenzie Global Quantitative senior vice president Arup Datta joins Wealth! to discuss the implications for investors and their portfolios. "My view on being positive in the markets remains," Datta states, noting outperformance in sectors like small caps after Trump's victory. However, he notes that presidential elections "play less of a role" in long-term impacts on markets in the US. He notes that investors should always have value, growth, and quality stocks in their portfolios, saying you "can't always predict which style will be in favor today, tomorrow, [or] in the next 6 months." Regarding specific stock picks, Datta advises investors to consider Nvidia (NVDA), Comerica (CMA), and Norwegian Cruise (NCLH).

Bitcoin was considered to be a part of the "Trump Trade" as holders backed the likelihood of a second Trump presidency in the lead-up to the election. Morning Brief welcomes on Axios crypto reporter Brady Dale to speak more about President-Elect Trump's relationship with the crypto community. "The first thing is probably he's going to get a new SEC [Securities and Exchange Commission} chair, someone else who is not going to be quite so hostile to the industry, isn't going to sue all of the best companies in the space," Dale hypothesizes. "And I think on that question is just what happens to all these lawsuits and threats of lawsuits — Do do a lot of settlements happen? Do they just get thrown out? Because these companies need to know that they can move forward." Brady — the author of SBF: How The FTX Bankruptcy Unwound Crypto's Very Bad Good Guy — describes cryptocurrency traders as being "confident" in the fact that Trump will follow through on some of his crypto policy promises, which could lead a push into stablecoin adoption.

Yahoo Finance Video ? 4 hours ago XLF ^DJI ^IXIC Why the stock market is up on Trump's win: Regulation, tax cuts All three major indexes (^DJI,^GSPC, ^IXIC) jump in premarket trading after former President Donald Trump secured a second term, winning the presidential election against Vice President Kamala Harris. American Action Forum president and the former director of the Congressional Budget Office from 2003 to 2005, Doug Holtz-Eakin, joins Julie Hyman and Seana Smith to discuss the expected economic impacts of Trump's win and why it's sending US stocks higher. "Certainly the most striking difference between the Biden administration, and what probably would have been the Harris administration, and Mr. Trump is in the regulatory area. The Biden administration has imposed $1.7 trillion of costs on the private sector in not yet four years. That's double what Obama did in eight years. During his four years as president, Donald Trump imposed $40 billion [in] regulatory costs. It's just night and day different on the regulatory front. There's no reason to believe that that will be any different the next time around," Holtz-Eakin tells Yahoo Finance. He adds there's "the unambiguous good news of extending the tax cuts, perhaps getting lower corporate rate as well," though "the question of what happens on the tariff front" persists as with Trump's plans representing "a headwind to growth." Holtz-Eakin says assessing the impact of Trump's tariff plans will depend on which party controls of the House. Another significant impact of Trump's reelection is on immigration. "There will be attempts to change the legal immigration system to minimize immigration to the US. Deportations are a wild card. He promised to deport 11 million people in the 2016 race. That never transpired. We did some work back then that said it would cost $400 [billion] or $500 billion and take about 20 years. None of that played out at all, so I've got an eye on that as well." The immigration plans Trump campaigned on could affect the labor market and, in turn, inflationary pressures. For more market reaction to the 2024 election, click here.

U.S. stock futures are surging, bitcoin (BTC-USD) hit an all-time high this morning and continues to trade near record highs, and Tesla (TSLA) is surging in pre-market trading. Trump won the key battleground state of North Carolina and flipped other swing states including Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Wisconsin on his way to become the 47th President of the United States. Republicans also look poised to flip the Senate as Democrats fight to hold control of the House. The 10-year Treasury yield is moving higher.

Nelson Yahoo Finance Video ? 8 hours ago BTC-USD ^GSPC TSLA Election 2024: Why crypto policy should be next president's focus The presidential election results could significantly impact various market sectors, with cryptocurrency emerging as a key focus area. "Trump has always been a little more friendly to the crypto environment, but even Harris had a kind of 'reset' where she kind of sat back down with the crypto community after seeing how influential these dollars were," IDX Advisors chief investment officer Ben McMillan told Yahoo Finance Anchor Josh Lipton. McMillan emphasizes that comprehensive crypto regulation should be a top priority for the next administration, noting that the current regulatory framework has been "haphazard" over the years. "With where we are as a country and our growth cycle, we can't be picking and choosing our spots for innovation, and crypto is a huge source of innovation," he states.

This post was written by Angel Smith Yahoo Finance Video ? 20 hours ago ETH-USD SOL-USD BTC-USD Will Elon Musk's 'big bet' on Trump pay off for him and Tesla? Billionaire Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk has been vocal in his support for former President Donald Trump's election campaign. Intelligent Alpha CEO and founder and Deepwater Asset Management managing partner Doug Clinton sits down with Josh Lipton on Market Domination Overtime to discuss what the election outcome means for Musk and how his political involvement affects investors. "It will be a very interesting night for Elon Musk," Clinton says, adding, "He's obviously made a really big bet on the election going one direction. And I think if it goes against him if Kamala Harris is elected president, I think it probably is a negative for him." He notes that Tesla could stand to benefit from a Harris presidency, given she could provide further tax incentives for electric vehicles as part of a green energy push. Clinton says that Musk will likely "find some way to try to mend fences and say, 'Look, obviously, it didn't go the way that we were campaigning, but we have this agenda that actually does very much align with some of the principles of the Democratic Party.' I mean, Elon probably has done more for bringing sustainable energy into the markets, kind of into the mass markets, really in the US and globally than maybe anybody else in the world." As an investor in Musk's companies, Clinton says, "We try to separate [Musk's companies from his politics]. At Deepwater, we are investors in xAI, and we're big believers that there's basically four companies on Earth that have a chance to build the foundation models that power sort of everything. It's Meta (META) with Llama, it's Google (GOOG, GOOGL) [with] Gemini, OpenAI with GPT, and then xAI with Grok. So that investment is really built, I think, more on just what can they do from a technical perspective."

This post was written by Naomi Buchanan Yahoo Finance Video ? 20 hours ago TSLA What technicals are signaling about the market rally's future While equity markets (^DJI, ^IXIC, ^GSPC) adjust to November and election-related volatility, stocks could have more room to run higher especially as seasonality themes become core to market themes. Oppenheimer Head of Technical Analysis Ari Wald sits down with Seana Smith and Brad Smith to discuss what the technicals are telling investors. "This is all the seasonal roadmap is consistent with history. This 1% drop in October, consistent with the typical pre-election year moderation," Wald tells the Morning Brief. "And typically then as we get that uncertain event out of the way, the November, December tends to be a much stronger time of the year. And I would say just given the broadness of the move into the recent highs... just the broadness of the move would suggest that this is an uptrend that can continue." Wald goes on to discuss where there are more defensive opportunities in select sectors, and how small-cap stocks are branching out more to participate in these uptrends for markets.

Yahoo Finance Video ? 22 hours ago ^DJI ^IXIC ^RUT Tesla investors lose bid for new US trial over Musk's 2018 tweets A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday upheld a jury's verdict clearing Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his company of liability over allegations they misled investors when the billionaire posted on social media in 2018 that he had "funding secured" to take the electric car company private. The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected arguments by lawyers for Tesla investors that the instructions jurors received on the law from the judge presiding over the case before they delivered their verdict in February 2023 were flawed, warranting a new trial. Lawyers for Tesla shareholders argued the jury instructions were confusing and impermissibly heightened their burden of proof by requiring them to establish Musk knowingly made false statements when he wrote his posts on Twitter, the platform now known as X following Musk's $44 billion acquisition of it in 2022.
