The international markets have risen with the worst falls in recent years, and it is presumed that the cause is the fear of American political unrest.
President Trump promised to recover the country's economy, create new jobs and improve the conditions of US capital in general, but his excessive political actions could unleash exactly the opposite.

According to analysts, the causes have to do with economic speculation in the United States, where there is fear of an increase in interest rates at a precipitous speed, as well as inflation that is just as fast because of the new employment data that the president has not hesitated to promote.
