A mate of mine put it similarly.
"It is a choice between palliative care (Clinton) and radical surgery with a 90% chance of fatality (Trump)".
It turns out that calling people racists/bigots/whatever, whilst claiming to be 'tolerant' yourself, just motivates them to get out and vote. Similar to Brexit. There must be quite a few European leaders who are more than a little worried right now.
As to the original topic, the biggest fear/prediction was of issues with the stockmarket and exchange rates. This appears not to have happened, so the effect may well be minor.
Perhaps with China partially shut out of the US market, we will be a more attractive export destination for them.
