In the aftermath of the 2024 presidential election, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has publicly criticized the Democratic Party&#8217;s handling of working-class issues.
What Happened: A statement released on Tuesday by Sanders expressed his disappointment with the Democratic Party&#8217;s neglect of the working class, which he believes has led to their abandonment of the party.

</figure>
&#8220;It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.&#8221;
Sanders highlighted the increasing income and wealth inequality in the U.S., with 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck. He also criticized the country&#8217;s healthcare system and its continued financial support for the Netanyahu government.
&#8220;Unbelievably, real, inflation-accounted-for weekly wages for the average American worker are actually lower now than they were 50 years ago.&#8221;
Sanders wondered if the Democratic party would actually learn any real lessons from this &#8220;disastrous campaign.&#8221; He expressed his lack of confidence in this being a learning movement for the democrats.
&#8220;In the coming weeks and months those of us concerned about grassroots democracy and economic justice need to have some very serious political discussions,&#8221; said Sanders.
In a post on X, on Wednesday, Sanders said, &#8220;While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.&#8221; He said &#8220;They&#8217;re right.&#8221;

The election results sparked an &#8220;everything rally&#8221; on Wall Street, with major U.S. equity indices surging to record highs. This was largely due to investor optimism over anticipated favorable tax policies under the Trump administration.

ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) shares were down 2.22% to $661.43 at market close Wednesday following news of Donald Trump's victory in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41772701/trumps-historic-return-7-ways-his-second-term-could-impact-the-us-economy">2024 U.S. presidential election</a>.
Trump&#8217;s return to office, coupled with a Republican majority in the Senate and a lead in the House of Representatives, has raised concerns over renewed trade tensions and the possibility of aggressive tariffs.
What To Know: During his campaign, Trump proposed a 60% tariff on Chinese goods, along with a universal 10% tariff on all imports to the U.S. This policy direction is worrying for global technology companies, including ASML, as its advanced lithography machines are essential to semiconductor production worldwide.
ASML's products are already impacted by U.S.-China trade policies, given the semiconductor industry's reliance on complex international supply chains. ASML, which is headquartered in the Netherlands, sells its equipment globally, including to Chinese companies — a significant revenue stream now facing increased uncertainty.

What Else: The potential for additional restrictions on U.S. companies doing business with Chinese firms under Trump's administration could also hurt ASML's business indirectly. If U.S.-based tech giants face hurdles in the Chinese market, their demand for advanced lithography machines from ASML may diminish. 
Additionally, rising economic and political tensions could fuel an ongoing shift in tech supply chains as companies reassess global expansion plans and sourcing, a trend that could complicate ASML's growth strategy over the long term.
Market analysts at JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co underscored Trump's proposed tariffs are likely to be "a direct headwind to global technology trade," which could hit companies like ASML more acutely than other sectors.
Given ASML's reliance on global market stability and free trade to maintain its dominance in semiconductor manufacturing equipment, the return of protectionist trade policies under Trump's administration raises significant concerns about the company's medium- to long-term outlook.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, ASML has a 52-week high of $1,110.09 and a 52-week low of $633.80.

ChargePoint Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHPT#NYSE">CHPT</a>) shares closed Wednesday down 17.01% to $1.22. Electric vehicle-related stocks are trading lower after Donald Trump won the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41784504/trumps-win-sends-indices-to-record-highs-financials-small-caps-surge-bitcoin-tops-75-000-w">2024 presidential election</a>. Investors may be weighing future policy-making decisions that could impact the industry.
Trump&#8217;s return to office, alongside a Republican-controlled Senate and a leading position in the House of Representatives, signals a sharp pivot away from the climate-focused policies pursued by the Biden-Harris administration. 
What To Know: Investors are reacting to fears that Trump's proposed policy shifts could undermine the EV sector, including infrastructure developments crucial to ChargePoint's business model.
Throughout his campaign, Trump made it clear that he intends to roll back green energy subsidies and incentives that have been key to the growth of EV infrastructure. His tax policy agenda includes rescinding federal tax credits for green energy projects, a move expected to slow the pace of EV adoption as it would make EVs more expensive for consumers.
Read Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41782783/coinbase-ceo-brian-armstrong-welcomes-most-pro-crypto-congress-ever-as-end-to-gary-gensler">Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong Welcomes &#8216;Most Pro-Crypto Congress Ever,&#8217; As End To Gary Gensler&#8217;s SEC Chair Stint Nears</a>
Under the Biden administration, the EV market benefited from substantial federal support, including charging infrastructure tax credits and rebates that have helped ChargePoint expand its network and accelerate growth. 
Trump&#8217;s proposed cuts to these initiatives raise questions about the future demand for charging stations, a primary revenue driver for ChargePoint.
What Else: Analysts are also concerned about the impact of Trump's proposed tariffs and trade policies on the EV industry. Trump's plan to impose a universal 10% tariff on all imports, alongside a 60% tariff on Chinese goods, could increase costs for manufacturers and suppliers in the EV supply chain, as many EV components, such as batteries, are still sourced internationally. 
For ChargePoint, which relies on a global supply chain for equipment and infrastructure, these tariffs could increase costs, squeeze margins and limit the availability of critical components, potentially delaying installations. Higher tariffs could also drive up prices for EVs, reducing consumer demand, and further suppressing the market for charging networks.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Should I Sell My CHPT Stock?</h1>
When deciding to hold on to or sell a stock, investors should consider their time horizon, unrealized gains and total return.
Shares of ChargePoint have decreased by 55.29% in the past year. An investor who bought shares of ChargePoint at the beginning of the year would take a loss of $0.94 per share if it was sold today. The stock has fallen 11.87% over the past month, meaning an investor who bought shares on Oct. 1 would see a capital loss of $0.08.
Investors may also consider market dynamics. The Relative Strength Index can indicate whether a stock is overbought or oversold. ChargePoint stock currently has an RSI of 75.68, indicating overbought conditions.

Cannabis Stocks Collapse After Trump Win: Major Players See Double-Digit Declines At Wednesday's Close

The U.S. election results have stirred up first reactions in the markets. Analysts from JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co see Donald Trump&#8217;s return to the White House as a potential shift in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">commodity market</a>.
The bank&#8217;s equity research analyst, Bill Peterson, noted Trump&#8217;s history of deregulation and tariff-heavy policies, suggesting that this approach could lead to greater domestic support for the U.S. steel industry.
&#8220;We expect a broad-based positive knee-jerk reaction for steel equities," Peterson said in a note, pointing to the likely impact of more tariffs on Chinese and Mexican steel. In contrast, metals closely tied to the Chinese market, such as copper, may face downward pressure due to heightened U.S.-China trade tensions.
United States Steel Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) shares closed the day rallying over 8%. 
Concerns about tariffs are particularly high in Canada, where Toronto's commodity-heavy market is sensitive to U.S. economic policy. The Toronto Stock Exchange's materials sector has already felt the impact, with GreenFirst Forest Products (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICLTF#OTC">ICLTF</a>) closing Wednesday down 3.40%.
While the U.S. dollar had periods of decoupling from its typically inverse correlation to commodity prices, that was not the case following the election results.
&#8220;A strong U.S. dollar has somewhat weighed on commodity prices," Douglas Porter, chief economist at BMO Capital Markets, said <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/tsx-futures-surge-more-than-1-after-trumps-election-victory-2024-11-06/">per</a> Reuters.
Notably, Porter was one of the voices pointing out the elephant in the room: the budget deficit issue. 
"The reality is that neither presidential candidate has offered any serious path to reining in the budget deficit — quite the opposite for the most part," he <a href="https://economics.bmo.com/en/publications/detail/8f1107e4-aca6-4249-8b06-e7f638059877/">wrote</a> in September.
Porter&#8217;s current insight reflects a broader worry that if Trump imposes aggressive tariffs, the Canadian market's reliance on resource exports could be at risk, impacting commodity-driven industries across North America.
Over his first term, Trump has consistently supported the U.S. mining sector. In 2020, he issued an executive order backing critical mineral mining, stating, "A strong America cannot be dependent on imports from foreign adversaries for the critical minerals necessary to maintain our economic and military strength."
Trump&#8217;s 25% tariff on imported steel and 10% on aluminum from 2018 was eventually revoked by the Biden administration.
Trump's emphasis on "American independence" in mining could signal more federal backing for domestic projects if he pursues similar policies in his second term.
