President Donald Trump promised to usher in the "golden age of America" in his victory speech early Wednesday morning. At the open of trading hours later, the Dow gained over 1,320 points (in excess of 3%) while the S&P 500 index increased by 1.9% and the Nasdaq rose by 2.2%. CNN indicated that this is the first time the Dow has jumped over 1,000 points in a single day since November 2022.While some analysts suspect the decisiveness of the win may have put some investors at ease, others figure Trump's policy proposals — especially those pertaining to deregulation and taxes — have investors excited.Michael Block, COO at AgentSmyth, told CNN, "There is this huge perception of [a] business friendly, tax-friendly regime coming into place, especially with them winning the Senate."'Business animal spirits could be rekindled once again.'Republicans have secured a majority in the U.S. Senate and are poised to keep the House."Assuming the House goes Republican, we expect that a Red Sweep outcome will play out in a similar fashion to the 2016 playbook but to a lesser degree given a more mature economic backdrop and higher equity valuations," Jeff Schulze at ClearBridge Investments told Bloomberg. "Business animal spirits could be rekindled once again from Trump's pro-business approach."As it became clear Trump was going to win in a landslide, the price of Bitcoin rocketed from south of $70,000 to over $75,000 overnight, zigzagging around $74,400 Wednesday morning. This jump was energized by Trump's embrace of crypto on the campaign trail. In July, Trump told crypto boosters at a Bitcoin conference in Tennessee that he would make the U.S. the "crypto capital of the planet."Not only did the U.S. dollar rise against the euro, the peso, the Japanese yen, and the Chinese yuan in response to Trump's landslide win — the biggest rise since March 2020 — the New York Times indicated that yields on U.S. government bonds also climbed sharply. Treasury 10-year yields reportedly advanced 18 basis points to 4.45%.While the American market was ostensibly made great again, European stocks took a tumble Wednesday afternoon. CNBC noted that the pan-European Stoxx 600 was down 0.68% by 4 p.m. London time.Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox.

Barstool Sports owner Dave Portnoy said Vice President Kamala Harris drove away independent voters by running a campaign based on moral superiority and name-calling.Portnoy, who announced in September that he would be voting for Donald Trump, demolished Democrat Party brass for running the "worst" campaign he's ever seen."Independents or moderates ... the Democrats gave us no choice. That was the worst campaign, and the pure arrogance and moral superiority have driven people away."Portnoy noted that the strategy of saying Trump is a threat to democracy only resulted in pushing people to his side."He didn't just win, he won for fun. He won the electoral, he won the popular vote, he won [by] more votes than last time," Portnoy explained. 'You are alienating all these middle-ground people.'Furthermore, the Barstool boss pointed to the name-calling used by Democrats and their supporters, typically in the final weeks of the campaign where Trump rallies were likened to Nazi rallies."If you say you're voting for Trump, suddenly it's 'Nazi, you're Hitler, you're garbage.' Enough!"Portnoy added, "You are alienating all these middle-ground people.""He won clear, he won decisive, so when you call us that and you say that, you're calling the majority of the country racist, Nazi, Hitler."For Harris' part, Portnoy said in his social media video that there was an obvious call for change that the vice president wasn't up to, and Harris couldn't articulate any way she was different from President Joe Biden.The Trump campaign continuously highlighted an appearance by Harris on "The View," where she stated, "There is not a thing that comes to mind," in regard to what she would do differently from Biden.Portnoy added that change was sorely needed to solve issues like inflation, border policy, and conflicts in the Middle East, which he said Harris did not address.Portnoy's gripes extended to the Democratic Party as a whole, which he felt was gaslighting him by running a candidate who "can't answer any questions" and "didn't get any votes" when she ran for president."It's garbage," Portnoy stated."Democrats were the one saying Joe Biden was mentally fit for two years when he was a vegetable. He couldn't make it off stage after a speech, and the Democrats would lie to our face."Portnoy ended his video by saying he voted for Trump because he felt he "had no choice."The sports personality has remained consistent leading up to the election, voicing that he was worried that if Harris was elected, states like California and New York would become the norm for the rest of the country in terms of their decay."I wouldn't have voted for [Trump] in the Republican primaries," he revealed but said that what Democrats have done is "far worse."Like Blaze News?

Camera Control is one of the marquee features of the new iPhone 16 lineup. Apple claims it is a "result of thoughtful hardware and software integration, which elevates the camera experience on the iPhone 16 lineup" thanks to a "tactile switch that powers the click experience, a high-precision force sensor that enables the light press gesture, and a capacitive sensor that allows for touch interactions." The company constantly advertises that the iPhone 16's Camera Control is perfect for never missing a shot. However, after more than a month of trying this new button with both the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 16 Pro Max, I don't think I'm sold. I upgraded to the iPhone 16 Pro Max mainly because I wanted a larger display and better battery, and I'm fine with it. The Camera Control should be a bonus, but I have a few problems with it: Fast-opening the Camera app with it is always laggy for me — sometimes, it actually causes my phone to reboot Taking photos with it is uncomfortable because of where the button is positioned, and I think it's hard to use it in both Portrait and Landscape modes Selecting camera settings with it is slower than just tapping the screen Image source: José Adorno for BGR While my colleague Chris Smith had a slightly different feeling about his iPhone 16 Plus, he also disliked the new Camera Control functionality. It's important to make clear the fact we are certainly not alone: On Reddit, tons of posts say how bad the iPhone 16 Camera Control is while very few people seem to be praising it. One of the oldest threads on the topic still has some people complaining about it to this day. One user's comment summed up what most people felt about it. When I saw this concept, I was very excited despite knowing that I am not gonna buy the phone. Having a dedicated button to open the camera or access visual AI is a great idea, not having to touch the screen would also be great. But seeing how this is so poorly implemented, according to most people on the internet, I am pleased to continue using my iPhone 13 until it is discontinued. On another thread, a Redditor, who considers themselves a "professional photographer," calls the Camera Control surprisingly "frustrating and inconvenient," mentioning some of the issues I wrote above. On the other hand, another thread praises the Camera Control. Still, most people under the comments say this feature could be better implemented. A top change would be the position of the Camera Control button. If it were slightly closer to the Side Button, people would think it would be easier to reach and take photos with it. Unfortunately, as it is, the Camera Control seems to be one of Apple's poorest choices for its latest iPhone devices.
