Trump's first 100 days are the worst stock market since Nixon

Since the 1970s, the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s tenure are the worst stock markets in the stock market.

According to CFRA Research, the S&P 500 index, which was the second worst 100-day performance from Trump's sworn in on January 20 to the end of April 25, returned to the start of Richard Nixon's second term. Nixon saw the S&P 500 index 9.9% in 1973 after a series of economic measures hitting inflation in 1973. Nixon resigned in 1974 due to the Watergate scandal.

The CFRA shows that the S&P 500 rose 2.1% in post-election data from 1944 to 2020 in the first 100 days of any president.

After the November election victory, current businessmen in the confidence of former businessmen, the S&P 500 soared to history, with the severity of stock declines compared to the initial joy of "Victory". CFRA data shows that the S&P 500 rose by 3.7% from Election Day to Inauguration Day.

The rally spits violently and then violently Nov when Trump uses his early days to push other campaign commitments, and especially a radical approach to trade, many fearing that it will increase inflation and put the United States into recession.

In April, the S&P 500 lost 10% in just two days and briefly entered bear market territory after Trump's "reciprocity" tariff announcement. Trump then backed off part of the announcement, which stopped countries from renegotiating for 90 days, soothing some investors' concerns. Many people are concerned about further shortcomings.

“Everyone is looking for this bottom here,” said Jeffrey Hirsch, editor of the Stock Exchange Yearbook. "I still think it's a bear market rally, it's a short-term bounce. I don't believe we've left the woods, and Washington lacks clarity and ongoing uncertainty."

The S&P 500 index reached its highest point of 6,144.15 on February 19 and closed on Friday at 5,525.21. Starting in November, it eliminates all post-election gains.

To be sure, Trump has two other trading days to reduce his losses. His first 100 days technically ended on Tuesday. If the 500 index rally this week, he could be close to the worst start of the third inning – a 6.9% drop in the first 100 days of George W. Bush in 2001.
