How could Trump presidency impact BBT stock? During the U.S. Presidential race, Donald Trump stated that he would get rid of the Dodd-Frank Act and destroy the Wall Street Reform. If this occurs, banks and financial services such as BB&T could benefit and make certain speculative investments. This explains why BBT and other financial sectors rallied after he won the presidency.
What’s next? No body knows as Trump is incredibly unpredictable. However, so far financial services are still more likely to gain from him, unless something crazy happens.
