Trump's win has been very good for traders. 
Another point, if Trump the President does to the USG debts what he did to the bond holders/banks of his companies, the US debt will melt away in no time. Governments like China, Japan, Korea, Germany... private bond holders like pension funds, banks...will be left holding the bag, getting pennies to a dollar. That should create another huge bull market for the US? Well, maybe just my wishful thinking.

Taking a rather contrarian view on the markets, one can easily become cynical as to the ramifications of tremendously unconventional central bank intervention in the markets globally. Donning glasses from the Austrian School of Economics, these global markets appear to be very large asset bubbles fueled by the unprecedented creation of base currency by central banks in all of the major markets on earth.
So, what should we. small retail traders/investors, do?
It does feel a bit like searching for dynamite by candlelight...
