‘Trump trade’ returns for second week as bitcoin, Tesla, stocks surge

Cryptocurrencies and stocks, including Tesla, rallied Monday, picking up where they left off last week in the wake of the President-elect Donald Trump’s victory.

The price of bitcoin hit an all-time high of more than $88,000, a rally that started shortly after Trump was declared the winner of the election. That’s up from $68,000 — a gain of 27% — just since last Tuesday, Election Day in the U.S.

Year to date, the price of bitcoin has nearly doubled.
