Following the election, the market has surged around the theme of “Trumponomics” as a “New Hope” as tax cuts and infrastructure spending (read massive deficit increase) will fuel earnings growth for companies, stronger economic growth, and higher asset prices.

This is the first time, within the last three years, the markets have pushed a 3-standard deviation move from the 50-day moving average.
