The Pence factor: Get Tax Relief Passed

With his administration less than seven months old, a hot political conversation centers on US President Donald Trump potentially facing a primary challenge from an establishment Republican in 2020.

While some say Trump doesn't matter to the market, other say he very much matters and beneficial tax relief could significantly boost stocks in the short term.
