Are global financial markets ready for Trump trade?

As a sign of continuity at the US Federal Reserve (US Fed), however, Trump, reports suggest, wants Jerome Powell to continue till his term ends. Meanwhile, the recent assassination attempt on Trump in Pennsylvania, analysts believe, can brighten his prospects and put him ahead in the presidential race with Joe Biden.

Among asset classes, VK Vijayakumar, chief investment strategist, Geojit Financial Services, said the assassination attempt on Trump will have a near-term positive impact on safe assets like gold and dollar.
