Wall Street Celebrates the Inauguration of Donald J. Trump with Exuberance

Markets advanced 94 points today, a stark difference from when Obama was first sworn into office and the market got decapitated for 4% of its worth.

Breadth was around 65%, with the majority of gains found in shippers, gold, tankers, silver and regional banks.

There are a ton of EPA plays out there, like $NAK, worth exploring and we’ll get into that as the weeks progress.

With oil prices firming and environmental restrictions abating, we could be entering a golden age of oil exploration — including fracking and deep water drilling.

Two plays off the top of my head, both which are dear to me, are $FTK and $RIG.

Let’s not forget nuclear energy, something I am adamant about for the next 4 years. My favorite plays there are $CCJ, $UEC and $URG.

Lastly, come check out Exodus, free through Sunday. You can even spy on my GARP index, my personal portfolio of shitty stocks, and the wide sundry of tools that make the platform magnificent.

I’m just about Trump’d out. I’ve spent all of my emotional nationalistic pride these past few months and truly hope for a period of calmness — permitting me to focus my frantic energies on finance related matters.

    This is weird. His rallys were huge, but his inauguration and concert had embarassing attendance.

      Benny at least he had attendance at his rallies as opposed to photo shopped people in pictures. Or better yet busing in high school kids to a university rally.

      Please give it a rest. You’re going to stroke out on us and we don’t want that.

      The kids that grew up under Obama have a socialist soul.
      We need to teach the younger generation how to make money.
      I have no idea what they are thinking or waiting for…

    Barron is getting bored watching the parade. In ten minutes Trump will have to cold cock him and have the secret service take him home.

      Be careful what you ask for. I’m sure frog will post a 4,000 word essay about how the inauguration was the least viewed in a few decades and how Beyoncé would not agree to perform within 2,000 miles of DC today because of Trumps hatred of minorities and illegal immigrants. And cue frog in 5,4,3,2,1…

    Senor – Long time follower from the blogspot days and Exodus member here. You cheered for “Give me my DOW +40” every day since 2009. You cheered every iteration of QE. Ain’t that correct?

      If you don’t get that the market rally from 2008 on had virtually nothing to do with 0bama, you are part of the problem.
