Top 10 S&P 500 stock winners since Election Day

The recent presidential election has had a significant impact on the stock market, with many large U.S. companies experiencing a surge in stock prices. According to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence, the top 10 performing stocks in the S&P 500 index saw returns of 18% or more since Election Day.

Two notable companies that saw significant gains were Axon Enterprise (AXON), a provider of law enforcement technology, and Tesla (TSLA), the electric vehicle maker led by Elon Musk. Both companies saw their stocks increase by more than 35%, outperforming the overall S&P 500 index, which only gained about 2% during the same period.

While these short-term gains may be enticing to investors, financial experts caution against making investment decisions solely based on momentum. Jeremy Goldberg, a certified financial planner and portfolio manager, advises investors to thoroughly understand the factors driving stock movements and assess the sustainability of these factors before making any investment decisions.

The outperformance of these stocks can be attributed to various factors, including expected policy changes under the upcoming Trump administration. Deregulation and a more lenient stance on mergers and acquisitions are expected to benefit certain industries, leading to bullish sentiment among investors.

Additionally, companies that reported strong quarterly earnings results or provided positive guidance post-election saw their stocks rise. Many of these companies cited artificial intelligence as a key driver of growth, with companies like Palantir Technologies and Axon experiencing significant gains as a result.

One company that saw a notable increase in its stock price is Vistra Corp., an energy provider that is in talks with large data centers to build or upgrade gas and nuclear plants. The increasing demand for energy from tech companies building data centers to support the AI revolution has contributed to Vistra’s stock surge.

The “Elon Musk premium” also played a role in the outperformance of certain stocks, particularly Tesla. Musk’s close association with Trump and the potential policy changes regarding electric vehicles and autonomous driving technology have boosted Tesla’s stock price significantly.

Overall, while short-term gains may be enticing, investors should exercise caution and conduct thorough research before making investment decisions based on market momentum. Understanding the factors driving stock movements and assessing their sustainability are crucial steps in building a successful investment strategy.
