The company I work for has seen a $15/share increase since Nov 8. It jumped $9 the Wednesday after Election.

How has your company's stock done since Trump was elected?

My stocks have done great.
People need to be buying bank stocks.
Once he gets rid of regulations all of them are going to pick up

About the same except the first day, ours was closer to $5
As of close today, about 16%. And this is an old, staid company that is not usually subject to wild market swings...I like it.
I went something like 90% cash a month before the election because I was really nervous Hilary would have an extremely negative impact on the economy and we'd see a huge regression. Then I saw the Trump bumps and I decided to wait to get back in because I thought it might be an artificial surge and I'd be buying at a peak.
Now I'm just pissed because I went against my own advice that I've had for years and tried to time the market. Ugh, that's what I get.

Are ya'll seeing that from the increase in promised infrastructure funding?
Having retired back in February, I'm not exactly 'dialed in'. But, I'd guess that it's more the promise of decreased regulation and increased consumer confidence.
Again, having left the company 10 months ago, I'm not really up-to-date in what's going on anymore.

Shhh....you don't want my boy Vinny knowin' we got a problem. Capisci?
My house is still here, my job is still here. Got money for my kids Christmas. Just keep it going for others. Dumbass Obama killed it for most. At least the kids parents got free cell phones for 911, but was able to get in touch with their baby daddy also for support. Even if he makes jobs most over here now won't hit a lick at a snake about to bite them.
Our stock hasn't moved much at GE and I'd say we are pretty heavily invested in our power sector growth. Oil is flat in the US and natural gas power will continue to surge, however, new generation will be paused as regulation battles come back into play. FWIW I do not believe coal will ever come back. I feel bad for all those miners who politicians say they care about, but if you believe in deregulated capitalism the answer is already staring you in the face.
It's the dead beats that kill this country. The taxes paid by those that work, for those that won't. Like the free cell phones and forcing insurance on people. Either work and get your insurance through the company or work and buy it. Same with cell phones. This sh!t is not free for the country, only the lazy @ss people in this country.
And no I don't make much money. No college education, no high school education. Just a GED. Started with a company at 10$ an hour. Wanted more, now I'm at a slim 19.38 an hour as the top operator. For stocks to keep rising, we need the jobs, and those that will work them.
I went mostly cash, too -- and will stay put until I see what happens in the first 100 days.
I hate that for you. It's a helpless feeling, no doubt.
So, I'll ask you since I was asked...what industry?
Interesting how I haven't heard many folks on here mention how well the stock market has done during the Obama years.

My portfolio is mixed. Some of my stocks are up, but tech stocks have not done anything since election, and that's where I am heavy (only because they have grown so much relative to my other holdings). Threat of protectionism not good for tech, and the Donald's feuds with some of the tech industry's leaders plus his penchant for revenge has Wall Street a bit nervous for the future of some large West Coast tech companies.
Interesting how I haven't heard many folks on here mention how the stock market was bought and paid for by issuing (QE + 0% interest rates) more debt and basically zero to do with actual savings and investment. And still is to this day. Why did we have such a dramatic increase in '09? What are the dips and rises at the end of '10 and '11 all about? Look at the link and tell me that the rise we are all viewing is from legitimate growth and not the 4.5 TRILLION dollars sitting on the Feds balance sheet right now, can you?
But back to Trump, why is it that the stock market is going up with Trump talk, is it something different from what we have already seen? Nope! If the stock market sniffs the issuance of more debt on the horizon (i.e. Trump economics = QE) it will go as far as the easy money does. What we are currently witnessing (10 years with no "recession") is unprecedented in scope and scale, this "whole" world bubble from central banks propping up asset/commodity prices is the most insane and damaging project ever devised and the downturn will only be that much more dramatic when it comes.
No unfunded economic policy should ever literally rape the future as we are now, our posterity will not forgive us for this. What is the old saying about lipstick and a pig?
Down 20% after a revised end of year guidance. Wall Street is pissed that we are only going to grow 28% YOY instead of the 35% we forecasted in our previous earnings call.
getting rid of regulations is great-
but this time- we should make the punishment for theft equivalent to possession of marijuana at least.
regulation only stifle growth, but not punishing the thieves is the real problem.
It's the only thing that did ok, because of cheap money floating around. All the other recovery indicators were very weak.
It began to decline the day after the election and went down about 12% the week after the election. It has come back up some and appears to have leveled off at around a 7% pre-election decrease.
baffles me that people talk about the change in the share price of their stock and not the %... share price change is a completely meaningless piece of information without starting share price.
also since I'm one of those brainwashed millennial socialists (i'm a 32 year old fiscal conservative)... who uses the DOW Jones to track the stockmarket anymore? S&P 500 is the only major index that means anything.
FWIW... work for an EPC company, we are up big, expected to capitalize off infrastructure spending as well as the rising oceans. (we are a major government contractor that would almost be a shoe in for contracts to build sea walls and raise city elevations.)
I'm heavily invested in gold and mining in anticipation of inflation... those haven't done as well since trump won, but they will, rest of my portfolio has done well enough to put me at an all time high... up maybe 5% since the election, but only about 1% over my all time high.

yes their is a bubble. but now investors are investing in that bubble. and letting pressure off the band to snap.
but hey we still have 2 groups out their. we got the moderate dems who are starting to listen to trumps plan now that hillary's people have shut up and realize hey they aint so bad. he aint so bad. lets give him a chance.
he actually worked on thanksgiving to save at least 1 job for a parent to maintain the ability to care for their children. much better than foodstamps.
we still have to deal with the extreme left that live in california, new york, chitown. just those 3 city areas can almost swing swing an election v what the rest of the country wants. that's scary actually.
still gotta get those black live matter people to chill out and get back to work.
