“President Trump” cannot be ruled out – markets cringe

The picture looks better for Donald Trump and worse for Hillary Clinton. The latest real results are promising for the Republican candidate. Pundits already say that the Clinton camp is worried, and for good reasons.  Only Ohio is surprising to the other side.

Update: State of the states:

  • Colorado: unclear, was supposed to be for Clinton goes to Clinton
  • Michigan: too close to call was supposed to be for Clinton
  • Wisconsin: too early to call, was supposed to be for Clinton
  • Virginia: picture does not look good for Clinton Clinton wins
  • North Carolina: small lead for Clinton, but too early – called for Clinton
  • Minnesota is too close to call.
