The valuation tool Warren Buffett praised earlier this century, which divides the market value of all public companies into U.S. gross domestic product, hit a record high of 208% last week.

The article from The Motley Fool discusses the potential economic implications of a Donald Trump victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, drawing parallels to historical precedents. It highlights concerns about Trump's proposed policies, such as significant tax cuts for individuals and corporations, which could lead to increased budget deficits and potentially higher inflation.
