A Look at the Ripple Effects in Politics, Markets, and Tech
Election Night
I stayed up pretty late to watch the voting board changes, staying until Trump’s team took the stage to deliver a victory speech.
To me, this result wasn’t surprising, as I felt the logic behind does not support Harris becoming the next president of the United States:
- The country is highly diverse with a mix of cultures, yet the foundation of Christian values still runs strong. Many voters are wary of the radical left.
- The country is also full of hard-working men and families behind them, who hold traditional beliefs. Unlike in Europe, American voters aren’t yet ready for a female president who doesn’t reflect a conventional family image.
- Harris is tied to the current administration, which is often blamed for recent difficulties — this is a natural reaction, as people tend to seek change.
- Harris’s performance as vice president has been criticized, though that may be common for all VPs. However, similar to #3, it’s still part of the “old track,” and people are now looking for a new direction.
- The Democrats’ policies seem too aggressive to many. The party should really do some self-reflection; promoting and supporting illegal immigration is not a great idea among many legal immigrants who formed the country.
In our society, there are two strong and opposing currents, and conflict feels inevitable.As individuals, we need to remind ourselves to update our mindsets while staying grounded in our core values.
I think Trump’s victory reflects a sentiment that values certain traditions that many feel define the country’s identity, even if those values don’t align with everyone’s personal beliefs.

As a businessman, I focus on long-term investments with occasional short-term opportunities. Although I was confident days ago that Trump would win, I didn’t take any significant steps to turn it into a positive outcome for my finances.
But market is not as slow as humans like me, as you can see:
- Tesla Stock Soars
- Cryptocurrency Price Soars
To be honest, it’s a short- to mid-term opportunity for a solid return if you clearly understand how the election could bring the impact. But we didn’t consider that, as it’s not something that usually ends up on the agenda for regular people like me. :)

So, after missing this investment opportunity, I’m reminded to return to my core belief: success comes from hard work combined with working smart.
As a finance tool startup, I believe innovation, ease of use and value adding to busy people for all. AI is an inevitable wave, set to transform many aspects of our work:
- Unlocking new levels of productivity across industries.
- Introducing innovative ways for users to interact with software.
