QUOTES-Investors react to shooting at Trump election rally
Jul 13, 2024 10:18 PM

July 14 (Reuters) -

Donald Trump was shot in the ear during a campaign rally in

Pennsylvania on Saturday in what the authorities said they were

treating as an assassination attempt. Trump's campaign said he

was fine after the incident.

Here are investors' reactions to the shooting.

NICK TWIDALE, CHIEF MARKET ANALYST, ATFX GLOBAL, SYDNEY

"I think it probably increases his chances, and we will

probably see some haven flows in the morning."

RONG REN GOH, PORTFOLIO MANAGER, EASTSPRING INVESTMENTS,

SINGAPORE

"The shooting is likely to bolster Trump's support, and only

further augments the positive momentum he has been enjoying

following the Presidential debates two weeks ago.

"The market reaction function to a Trump presidency has been

characterized by a stronger U.S. dollar and a steepening of the

U.S. Treasuries curve, so we might observe some of that this

coming week if his election odds are assessed to have further

improved following this incident."
