While opinion polls predict a close race between Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and Republican nominee Donald Trump, billionaire investor and former hedge fund manager Stanley Druckenmiller, the chairman and CEO of Duquesne Family Office, on Thursday weighed in with his thoughts on the 2024 presidential election.
What Markets Say: While stating that things are still fluid, Druckenmiller said he liked the market indicators for the elections. In an interview with Bloomberg, the billionaire said in 1980, the market was right on former President Ronald Reagan despite what the pundits said.
“And I must say in the last 12 days, the market and the inside of the market is very convinced Trump is going to win. You can see it in the bank stocks, you can see it in crypto, you can even see it in Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (NYSE:DJT), his social media company,” he said.
Industries that benefit from deregulation will benefit from a Trump victory and outperform others, Druckenmiller said.
Trump is the favorite to win the election now, the billionaire said, adding that the polls do not mean much nowadays as no one even responds to them anymore.
