With Donald Trump as president, we see a likely backdrop of lower corporate taxes, which would be broadly positive for high-tax-paying companies within our coverage, KeyBanc said.
KeyBanc cautioned, however, of probable hazards connected to trade policy. The paper discussed the significance of keeping an eye on possible tariffs, especially whether they would just affect China or have more general application to other nations.
