The Dow rose by 1,508 points, while the S&P and Nasdaq also saw considerable gains. This increase occurred due to a strong turnout on the Republican side, with Donald Trump winning the Electoral College and potentially securing the 47th presidency.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dividing Cafe weekly market commentary focused on dividends in your portfolio and dividends in your understanding of economic life. |
| 0:10.0 | Welcome to Dividend Cafe. This is Wednesday, November the 6th. |
| 0:17.0 | Brian Saitel with you on a very strong market day. The Dow closed up 1,508 points on the day. That's over 3.5%. The SMP was up 2.5%. The NASDAQ was up almost 3%. 2.95% on the day. These were all record closing intraday highs. And all of this was |
| 0:41.4 | as a result of a much stronger turnout in the presidential election on the Republican side, |
| 0:47.8 | with Donald Trump winning far enough votes in the electoral college to become the next 47th |
| 0:53.9 | president of the United States of America. |
| 0:56.4 | And not only that, but one by a quite wide margin. If the remaining states, which are leaning towards Trump, |
| 1:04.1 | go his way, which is Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, he'll end up with 312 of the electoral votes needed of that 270. Also on the popular |
| 1:14.4 | vote side, something around 67 plus million for Harris and something over 72 million for |
| 1:22.2 | Trump would be the first Republican to win both the popular vote and the Electoral College since 2004, |
| 1:29.9 | if you remember that, with George W. Bush. So there you have it. On top of that, we had the |
| 1:35.1 | Senate move to Republican control as well, gaining seats there. And while the House is still |
| 1:41.5 | undecided, there's indications that it may also end as a Republican-controlled House as well, which would be a full red sweep. |
| 1:50.3 | That part we won't know for the coming days, most likely. |
| 1:53.9 | But on the day, small caps were up. |
| 1:56.2 | Anything financial related, particularly with mergers and acquisitions, was up large on the day. |
| 2:02.2 | These sectors, along with industrials, all moved because of hopes of higher growth, of deregulation. |
| 2:08.6 | All of these things moved those sectors. |
| 2:10.4 | The laggards on the day were things that were more interest rate sensitive, like the home builders, |
| 2:15.4 | obviously with tariffs, likely to come down the pike, |
| 2:19.0 | anything China-related, underperformed, and then some of the large-cap technology names, also |
| 2:24.9 | were laggards on the day. So there you have it. Big day in markets. We'll see what we get |
