Trump Claims Credit for Market Milestone, Blames Democrats and Touts Tariffs

Donald Trump claimed credit for the stock market surge that pushed the Dow Jones index above 50,000, saying it happened three years earlier than financial experts had predicted. He blamed Democrats for potential economic risks, argued that US tariffs strengthened the market and national security, and predicted the Dow would reach 100,000 before his presidency ends.

Reacting on Truth Social, Trump said the Dow hitting 50,000 came three years earlier than experts had predicted.

“The ‘Experts’ said that if I hit 50,000 on the Dow by the end of my Term, I would have done a great job, but I hit 50,000 today, three years ahead of schedule,” he wrote, adding that Democrats would “CRASH the Economy.”

US Markets Snap Back In Style

The stock market experienced its best performance since May 2022 as Wall Street ended its pessimistic stretch and shifted back to positive momentum. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 2.5%, while the S&P 500 advanced 2% and the Nasdaq Composite climbed 2.25%, driven by a strong recovery in semiconductor and AI-related stocks.

After a week of losses, the rally triggered a sharp emotional turnaround. Tech-heavy markets, especially the Nasdaq, had logged three straight days of declines due to intense selling in software and AI stocks. Friday’s surge not only lifted share prices but also rebuilt investor confidence, highlighting Wall Street’s ability to stage powerful rebounds after prolonged sell-offs.

Global Cheer, Local Caution: Dalal Street Eyes a Bright Start, Not a Blind Rally

The positive outcome of Friday’s Wall Street recovery is likely to bring optimism to Indian markets on Monday, as global investors return to a risk-on mode. Strong gains in the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq-driven largely by tech and AI stocks-could benefit Indian IT companies and large firms with US exposure. Bitcoin’s rebound has also eased risk aversion, adding to the positive market mood. However, a full-fledged rally on Dalal Street is yet to take shape. The sustainability of the upside will depend on FII flows, RBI cues, and movements in global bond yields. While markets may open higher, investors are expected to remain selective amid recent volatility.
