Investor Fears Mount Over Prospect of Autocratic Trump Second Term

Trump's potential election raises concerns he could govern as an autocrat and undermine institutions, rattling investors.

The author has been steadily selling stocks in anticipation of a potential 50% market decline if Trump wins again.

Trump could target and financially punish companies that displease him, like China's president has done.

Frightened investors could pull money out of US markets and redirect investments abroad.

Even if a crisis is averted, damage may be done as investments dry up during his presidency.
