Market Impact Post U.S. Elections

Following the U.S. presidential elections, the effects on financial markets—specifically gold, stocks, and Bitcoin—have become increasingly clear. With Trump's inauguration on January 20, gold emerged as the most significantly devalued asset, while both Bitcoin and the U.S. Dollar saw notable gains. The rise in interest rates, coupled with the Federal Reserve's cautious statements, has placed significant pressure on gold prices. Moreover, the anticipated reduction in geopolitical tensions is perceived to further affect gold, as it typically benefits from such conditions. Despite a staggering 30% increase—the largest since 1980—gold has experienced a valuation pullback post-election as investors considered the need for profit realization. In the long run, ongoing global hostilities and trade tensions are expected to lead to a resurgence in gold's value. Meanwhile, the relationship between the U.S. election outcomes and Turkish markets is expected to yield positive results. Additionally, the potential implications of interest rate cuts on market dynamics remain a focal point for investors highlighting both risks and opportunities in stock markets.
