Stock market rises, public opinion falls? Political uncertainty and inflation pressures pose hidden concerns

【CoinPush】An interesting paradox: US stocks continue to rise, but political approval ratings are declining.

The latest poll data is quite eye-catching—Trump’s current approval rating is 37%, with 57% disapproval, resulting in a net approval of -20%, the lowest in his second term. Even more noteworthy is that support within the Republican Party has also wavered, dropping from 88% to 79% in just one week.

Where is voter dissatisfaction pointing? Key word: tariffs. 69% of respondents believe tariffs have directly increased living costs, which is the real pain point. Economic data looks good, but shrinking wallets are a tangible reality.

Currency policy is also quite interesting. 44% of voters trust Federal Reserve Chair Powell to set interest rates, while only 18% trust the White House’s economic decisions. What does this contrast indicate? The public’s recognition of the independence of the central bank far exceeds political interference.

Geopolitical uncertainties are also draining public opinion. Diplomatic moves involving Greenland and Venezuela are largely not well received by most voters. The analysis boils down to: stock market prosperity has not translated into political capital; price pressures and diplomatic risks are the true drivers behind approval rating declines. For markets and asset allocation, this kind of uncertainty warrants caution.
