The Closing Bell: Dow Pivots More Than 200 Points Higher After Trump Presidential Win

FYI: U.S. stocks rallied on Wednesday in a dramatic turnaround from overnight losses fueled by the upset victory of Republican Donald Trump as investors poured into sectors that appeared poised to benefit from the policies of a Trump presidency.

Markets oscillated between gains and losses in choppy morning trade. Heading into the latter stages of trading, each of the three major stock indexes were solidly in positive territory in the wake of Trump's win.

Gains of 3 percent each in the heavily weighted healthcare and financials sectors pushed indexes higher. Bond proxy sectors such as real estate, down 2.2 percent, and utilities, each off more than 2 percent, were the worst performers.
