Today, the White House hosts a special meeting with President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump. It is scheduled for 11:00 a.m. (16. 00 GMT) on Wednesday and is going to be something essential for its evident commitment to a peaceful transfer of power, which already reduces political uncertainty.
Statements from Trump following this meeting could move the markets since investors have eyes on policy shifts. Economic sectors most pointedly influenced may include infrastructure, taxation, and trade, considering that the remarks from Trump would guide the market's expectations for the immediate future and onwards.
Economic agendas on offer by Trump could be related to tax cuts, deregulations, and investments in infrastructure. They can influence specific areas such as energy, technology, and defense. Signals of economic priorities discussed might trigger market reactions, especially if Trump's interactions with leaders of the private sector, such as Elon Musk, reveal reforms or an agenda that suits innovation and efficiency. If this administration is to put large-scale infrastructure and tech advancement in the mainstream of the agenda, the latter will certainly boost the levels of stock gain within these sectors.
It may also change the nature of relations with China or the EU, changing trade flows and reflecting growth in the global economy. In the end, though, this meeting may mark the beginning of an initial tone toward the priorities. Trump will take with the economy and shape the market and investor sentiment over the next few months.
