The grossly unexpected results have sent the analyst community into a tizzy, as it analyzes the likely ramification a Trump presidency could have on varied sectors and segments of the economy.
Trip Chowdhry of Global Equities Research has strongly advocated possession of the following three stocks during Trump's presidency:
Apple
Apple is expected to ride the wave of exodus out of high PE stocks into low PE ones.
Global Equities Research believes investors will sell high PE stocks and buy low PE stocks. Accordingly, the firm is of the view that Apple, with its very low PE multiple of 7.3 times its 2017 earnings per share estimate of $10.07, after stripping $37.50 net cash per share, would benefit. The S&P 500 Index itself is trading at a much higher PE multiple of 24 times.
Intel
Trump's thrust on domestic manufacturing renders Intel attractive.
Under Trump, Chowdhry noted that manufacturing has once again become attractive. Intel has several manufacturing and test sites in the United States, namely D1X, D1C, DID fabs in Hillsboro, Oregon, Fab12, Fab32, Fab42 Fabs in Chandler, Arizona, and ab11X Fab in Rio Rancho, New Mexico.
Tesla
Tesla's manufacturing-focus places it in good stead.
The company's GigaFactory, a lithium-ion battery factory under construction, has production capacity of 50GW batteries and has a build-out of 13 million square feet. Additionally, the firm noted that the Solar GigaFactory in Buffalo, New York has 1.2-million square foot area, with 1GW of annual capacity.

- Shares of Apple were down 0.95 percent at $110.
