As the possibility of former President Donald Trump's election in the U.S. presidential election grows, the "Trump Trade," or Trump beneficiary, is strong.

On the other hand, the "Harris Trade," or Vice President Kamala Harris' beneficiary stocks, is relatively weak, and the investment market is fluctuating depending on the presidential election situation.

The so-called "Trump Trade" is gaining momentum in the asset market as the chances of former President Donald Trump, the U.S. Republican presidential candidate, have risen.

In other words, it is investing in Trump beneficiary stocks, and virtual currency and dollar are typical.

As Trump's chances of winning the election to turn the U.S. into a virtual currency capital grew, the price of Bitcoin, a major cryptocurrency stock, rose from $52,000 last month to $67,000 recently.

The dollar is also expected to rise in value as interest rates rise if prices rise as the 20% universal tariff pledge becomes a reality when Trump is elected.

The dollar index, which represents the value of the dollar against six major currencies, including the euro and yen, fell to the 100th level last month and then crossed the 103rd level.

Bank stocks and energy stocks that expect to ease restrictions, Trump Media, a major shareholder of Trump, and Elon Musk's Tesla, a Trump supporter, are also considered beneficiaries.

On the other hand, the Harris Trade, or Vice President Kamala Harris' beneficiary, is eco-friendly energy companies.

Harris beneficiary states have recently weakened as Trump's chances of winning the election grow.

However, experts advise that the polls are close and that the stock market's upward trend, which has lasted for more than three months, is in the ruling party's favor, so the conclusion is too early.

With the U.S. presidential race so close, uncertainty in the market is growing as election day approaches and the investment market is fluctuating.
