Now that the 2016 election has come and gone, the unexpected outcome has been a boon for dozens of major companies that are�set to benefit from the coming changes in the country. Some are financials, some are materials, some are infrastructure, and some are in services. The reality is that there have been many significant winners based on a Donald Trump expansion.
24/7 Wall St. has compiled several lists, but this latest list is comprised of companies that have not been as widely reported as the primary and secondary issues.
Before jumping blindly or aggressive into chasing recent post-election winners, investors need to understand what is a normal rally and what is an abnormal rally. It is not normal to see big gains or four straight days. That being said, many of these stocks may now be overbought, and investors are going to have to consider these on pullbacks in the days, weeks and months ahead, if they want to be sensible about their money.

Hot Financial Stocks For 2017: Tanger Factory Outlet Centers Inc.(SKT)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By Shauna O'Brien]
Jefferies announced on Wednesday that it has cut its rating on Tanger Factory Outlet Centers Inc. (SKT).
The firm has downgraded SKT from “Buy” to “Hold,” and has lowered the company’s price target from $40 to $35. This price target suggests an 8% upside from the stock’s current price of $32.22.
Analyst Omotayo Okusanya commented: “We expect near-term headwinds for the mall and outlet mall segment as tenant sales growth appears to be slowing.”
“At SKT, development yields on two projects have also been reduced. Further, rising interest rates negatively impact our DDM-derived PT. Our lowered PT of $35 represents a 10% total return over the next-twelve-months (NTM); we are downgrading to Hold,” added the analyst.
Tanger Factory Outlet shares were mostly flat during pre-market trading Wednesday. The stock is up more than 5% YTD.
Hot Financial Stocks For 2017: Old National Bancorp Capital Trust I(ONB)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By kiplinger]
Old National Bancorp (ONB) is a 181-year-old financial institution with 195 branches, mainly in the Midwest. The stock, which is still down by about one-third from its prerecession high, trades at just 13 times projected 2016 earnings and yields an attractive 3.4%. If interest rates ever rise, the bank should benefit from a widening spread between its cost of funds and the interest rates borrowers pay.
It's a favorite of David Dreman, author of the classic 1980 book Contrarian Investment Strategy. His philosophy: “We believe that the markets are not perfectly efficient.” Some stocks, in other words, are judged by the market to be cheaper than their actual worth.- [By Ben Levisohn]
