  • Quality growth has been the flavour for the past two years, but quality cyclicals may now present compelling opportunities, particularly as Trump's policies extend economic benefits beyond the biggest corporations.

The article from Livemint discusses the potential impacts of Donald Trump's possible return to the White House on global financial markets. It highlights how Trump's previous term was marked by significant policy shifts, including tax cuts, deregulation, and trade protectionism, which led to volatile market reactions. Analysts suggest that a second Trump administration might intensify these policies, potentially leading to increased tariffs, changes in tax policies, and a reevaluation of international trade agreements. Investors are advised to prepare for heightened market volatility, with sectors like technology, healthcare, and energy likely facing significant policy changes. The article also mentions the need for investors to diversify their portfolios, consider currency fluctuations, and keep an eye on geopolitical tensions, especially with China, as Trump's policies could further strain these relations. Furthermore, it underscores the importance of understanding the broader economic implications, such as inflation rates, interest rates, and the potential for a stronger or weaker dollar, all of which could be influenced by Trump's economic strategies.
