Trump May Be Re-Elected: Best ETFs in His Current Term
Read MoreHide Full Article
Republicans might win back the White House in 2020 with Donald Trump’s re-election as the President of the United States. At least, more than two-thirds of chief financial officers are of this opinion despite heightened trade tensions.
No doubt, President Donald Trump’s approval rating on the economy has dropped on rise in recessionary concerns. Trump’s approval rating on the economy dropped to 46% in a Quinnipiac University survey released late last month, down 2 percentage points from May. A CNN/SSRS poll released this month found 48% approvals — down from a peak of 56% in April. A separate Washington Post-ABC News poll showed 46% of approvals, a decline from 51% in July, per CNBC.
But majority of U.S. business leaders expects Trump to be re-elected in 2020 as a recession is not in the cards, at least in the near term. A struggling economy reduces the chance of an incumbent President wining election.
Though this group of leaders is not a fan of Trump’s trade policies and his view that more interest rate cuts are needed from the Fed for economic expansion, the cohort sees him winning the next election, per an article published on CNBC.
Against this backdrop, investors might be interested in checking out the ETFs that have gained materially in Trump’s presidency. Below we highlight a few ETFs that have been top performers in the past three years (as of Sep 17, 2019).
