While Donald Trump's victory in the US election was unpopular, there will inevitably be some winners from his Presidency. One sector which could record higher profitability as a result of his win is the defence sector. His promise of greater military spending and the possibility of rising defence spending among NATO members means the sector could reverse years of cutbacks.
Similarly, Brexit may not be popular among vast swathes of the UK electorate. However, its effect on sterling has been significant and highly beneficial to a number of UK-listed shares. It could even mean acquisitions undertaken by overseas firms are more likely.
One company which is therefore worth buying in my opinion is Rolls-Royce (LON:RR). Alongside the two catalysts of Trump and Brexit, it also has a sound strategy and fair valuation which could send its shares higher over the long run.
