More about Donald Trump
Donald Trump, a billionaire real estate mogul billed as the ultimate outsider, aims to shake up the US political establishment, which could potentially cause extensive market volatility along the way. Going forward, Trump should have a substantial impact on various key financial markets such as US Dollar, Euro, Yen, Pound and other important currencies as well as stocks, commodities and bond markets.
Trump was the second major-party presidential nominee in American history whose experience comes principally from running a business (Wendell Willkie was the first). By getting elected, Trump became the first United States President without prior government or military experience, and the first without prior political experience since Dwight D. Eisenhower.
