Historically, the benchmark S&P 500 stock index has not performed well on average on inauguration day, or the day after if the inauguration falls on a market holiday. However, the last three inaugurations have all resulted in market gains.
President Trump will take office next week, and he’s not wasting time publicizing his plans for his non-consecutive second term. Prominent among those plans is DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, to be headed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.
