  • Stock Market Outlook Under President Donald Trump: Historical Forecasting Tool Weighs In
    April 26, 2026, 1:07 AM EDT. Since the late 1890s, U.S. stocks have risen in 26 of 33 presidential terms, including double-digit returns under President Donald Trump. During Trump's first term, the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq gained 57%, 70%, and 142%, respectively, continuing strong into his second term. While many factors fuel these gains, technological advances like AI and quantum computing contribute significantly. Analysts anticipate AI alone could create $15.7 trillion in global economic value by 2030. Additionally, S&P 500 earnings have consistently beaten forecasts, driving stock indexes higher. Trump's 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act also played a role by lowering corporate income taxes. Despite skepticism about continued rises, a forecasting tool with 155 years of data offers insight into possible trends ahead, but no tool guarantees market outcomes.
