Former Trump economist unveils the No. 1 question voters must ask before placing ballots

Published On Sep 25, 2024, 6:00 AM

Stephen Moore, a former economist for Trump, has emphasized that voters should consider whether they want another four years of the current administration's policies during the upcoming election. He suggests that Kamala Harris' economic plans indicate a continuation of President Biden's strategies, which he associates with negative outcomes for Americans. Polls show Trump has an edge over Harris, particularly on economic issues, although the margins vary significantly across different surveys. Moore argues that Harris’ proposed tax increases could hinder wealth creation, while highlighting Trump's experience as a businessman as a positive point for his candidacy.

Stock Forecasts

Given the ongoing debate around taxation and economic policy leading up to the election, stocks in industries sensitive to government policy (such as financial services and energy) could be worth monitoring. Investors might consider taking positions in ETFs or stocks that are anticipated to perform better under a pro-business administration.
