Trump's Stock Call Resurfaces Amid S&P 500 Rally Predictions

A year-old quote from Donald Trump urging Americans to "buy stock now" has resurfaced on crypto Twitter, coinciding with a forecast from Wellington-Altus that predicts the S&P 500 will reach 8,000 by the end of 2026. According to BeInCrypto, the clip, originally from May 2025, has been repackaged with analyst Dr. James Thorne's targets, suggesting a significant rise in risk assets, including crypto. Thorne, chief market strategist at Wellington-Altus, attributes the potential S&P 500 surge to an AI-driven capital expenditure supercycle. Meanwhile, the Senate Banking Committee is preparing a markup on the CLARITY Act, with Polymarket traders assigning a 73% chance of it becoming law in 2026.
