The article discusses market reactions following Donald Trump's election as President. Investors are navigating uncertainty due to Trump's unconventional policies, which include promises of lower corporate taxes and less regulation that could boost corporate profits and stimulate economic growth. However, his planned increase in tariffs and restrictions on immigration could also slow the economy and cause inflation. Companies that may benefit from his policies include private prison firms and smaller domestic companies with low international exposure.
