Historically, presidents have prioritized candidates who align with their broader economic vision, whether focused on aggressive growth, inflation targeting, or specific regulatory approaches to banking.

Market valuations reflect the collective sentiment regarding a candidate’s alignment with Trump’s economic policy preferences and their perceived likelihood of securing Senate confirmation.
