Technology shares are suffering a Trump slump today, as investors calculate that Silicon Valley could suffer under the next president.
Shares in Amazon Netflix, Alphabet (Google) and Facebook have all fallen by at least 4%, and Apple and Microsoft are in the red too.
Trump’s criticism of companies who sent manufacturing overseas and hire large numbers of skilled workers from abroad, using the H1-B visa, could be bad news for the tech sector.
He’s also no fan of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, whose Washington Post was pretty scathing of Trump during the election campaign.

JP Morgan: Don't judge Trump by the stock market
Investors large and small will be relieved that Wall Street hasn’t crashed since Donald Trump pulled off one of the most surprising election results of the age.
But obviously the market reaction plays second fiddle to the wider consequences of America’s choice -- as the protests in New York, Chicago, Boston etc overnight show.
Stephanie Flanders of JP Morgan says Trump needs to pass three tests, as the world watches him closely.
The first will be for him to build a strong cabinet, with respected figures in key posts of Treasury Secretary and Secretary of State. Second, he needs to continue to give voice to the calmer, more gracious version of himself that was on display in his election night acceptance speech.
No-one should expect him to repudiate everything he said in the campaign about open borders and trade deals such as the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement. But the third test for the President-Elect will be to demonstrate that he does not plan to tear up the parts of the Washington establishment that are actually working quite well – notably, the US Federal Reserve.
Flanders points out that Trump’s economic plans will have major implications for the global economy:
The combination of looser fiscal policy and increased uncertainty over globalisation would be likely to mean a stronger dollar and potentially higher US inflation and higher interest rates. That is not a hugely helpful combination for the rest of the global economy, especially emerging markets. But that, too, is uncertain and could take time to materialise. In the meantime, my colleagues and I are not predicting a radically different path for the US economy following this result - or for US interest rates.
And remember, Trump’s success or failure won’t be measured in stock prices or foreign exchange rate. Flanders says:
This is about the kind of country that America wants to be.
At the heart of Donald Trump’s appeal was a promise to make it a nation that works better for the mass of voters who feel they have been left behind by globalisation and by the global financial crisis. For better or worse, that is the standard by which every developed country politician will increasingly be judged. Whether Mr Trump will actually deliver with on that promise is another matter.”
