Donald Trump Presidency Could Be Bad News for These 5 Stocks

SmallCapPower | March 11, 2016: U.S. Presidential Primary season is in full swing and Donald Trump has a comfortable lead on the Republican side. A Trump victory doesn’t seem so far-fetched anymore, which could have an adverse effects on the U.S. publicly-traded companies on our list today.

One sector that will likely see significant change is Military and Defense. Mr. Trump said, “I’m gonna build a military that’s gonna be much stronger than it is right now. It’s gonna be so strong, nobody’s gonna mess with us. But you know what? We can do it for a lot less.” Barack Obama’s 2016 proposed spending was up to $573 billion. With Donald Trump, we should see a fraction of that cost, which could negatively impact the stocks on our list today.
