So much for the Trump slump! Dow hits closing record high as stocks soar and the dollar makes its largest gains since Brexit
Wall Street reached record highs on Wednesday as the markets strengthened and currencies rose after being initially threatened by Donald Trump's election win.
The Dow index closed on 18,586 after rising more than 250 points in what experts described as the biggest market turnaround since the 2008 global financial crisis.
It reached a record high of 18,650 in the afternoon as the dust settled after Tuesday's election result.
The S&P 500 recorded a one month high at around 12pm, the exact time Hillary Clinton delivered her concession speech, and the Nasdaq index also strengthened.
The dollar clawed back its earlier two percent loss after being abandoned by investors who flocked to safe haven currencies including the Japanese Yen and the Euro overnight.
By 1pm on Wednesday, it had reached its highest gain since Brexit, climbing by 1.1 percent in a Bloomberg gauge.
While most other global markets were shaken by overnight losses, Russia was one of the few which showed soaring stock rates.

Aron Weider loses Assembly Seat, Kiryas Yoel's Biggest Nightmare!
98th Assembly District
Republican Karl Brabenec overcame a challenge by Democrat Aron Wieder for the 98th state Assembly District seat.
Brabenec, of Deerpark, beat out Wieder with 59 percent of the vote, according to unofficial results from the state Board of Elections. Brabenec was originally elected to the seat in 2014.
Weider, of Spring Valley, appeared on six different ballot lines, and managed to wrest the Conservative line away from Brabenec through a write-in challenge.
Among the top issues in the district, which includes portions of Rockland and Orange counties, was Kiryas Joel’s annexation of land from the Town of Monroe.
Brabenec opposed Kiryas Joel’s move to increase in size, and favored a proposal to create a town of North Monroe that lets both municipalities decide their futures. Wieder, who is former vice president and president of the East Ramapo school board, said the courts should decide — they have so far ruled in favor of the annexation.
The 98th Assembly district includes parts of the villages of Spring Valley, Montebello, Wesley Hills, Monsey and Kaser, and all of the village of Sloatsburg, as well as the Orange County towns of Monroe, Tuxedo, Warwick, Minisink, Greenville and Deerpark.
Trump a True Friend of Israel
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu congratulated Donald Trump on Wednesday, following his victory in Tuesday’s election.
Netanyahu, who assiduously avoided commenting on the race prior to the vote, called Trump "a true friend” of Israel.
Following criticism by left-leaning media outlets that he had appeared to side with Mitt Romney in 2012, the Prime Minister remained mum on this year’s election, going so far as to order government ministers not to make public statements on the issue.
Netanyahu said he looked forward to working with the 45th President of the United States, adding that the bond between the US and Israel was “ironclad.”
"President-elect Trump is a true friend of the state of Israel, and I look forward to working with him to advance security, stability and peace in our region," Netanyahu said.
"The ironclad bond between the United States and Israel is rooted in shared values, buttressed by shared interests and driven by a shared destiny.”
"I am confident that president-elect Trump and I will continue to strengthen the unique alliance between our two countries and bring it to ever greater heights."
Israeli President Reuven Rivlin also reacted to the news of Trump’s election, congratulating him – and warning him of the challenges he will face once in office.
“I want to congratulate President elect Donald Trump, his family, and all the American people who have once again showed the world it is the greatest democracy.”
“There are many challenges that lie before you as president - at home and around the world. Israel, your greatest ally, stands by you as your friend and partner in turning those challenges into opportunities.”
Rivlin then offered a blessing for the new President-elect, and a wish for increased cooperation between Israel and the US.
“I hope together Israelis and Americans can grow our innovation and cooperation, which are the fruits of liberty, and equality. God bless you Mr. President.”
Satmar & Skver Running Scared Because They Bet On the Wrong Horse
Both Satmar Brothers in collusion with the Skverer, endorsed Crooked Hillary for POTUS! They endorsed someone who voted to hand nuclear weapons to Iran, a country that vowed to wipe Israel off the map, Chas Ve'Sholem! They endorsed a candidate that endorses gay marriage.
The Kapos Friedlander, Nadler and the arrogant Lichtensteins will now crawl under the rock....
The Kapos Friedlander, Nadler and the arrogant Lichtensteins will now crawl under the rock....
But there is a G-d out there that protects Israel and didn't listen to those who "chanfeh" Goyim! Hashem didn't listen to the losing "manhigim" who could care less about 6 million Jews living in Israel and only cared about what it will do for the "moisid" or for New Square or Monroe and Williamsburg!
Now Trump owes them nothing!
