Shares of Credit Acceptance Corporation (CACC) surged 7.73% on Tuesday, November 6th, as investors reacted positively to the prospect of lighter regulation for consumer lending firms under a Donald Trump presidency.
The stock rally came after Trump secured a dramatic comeback to the White House, with analysts predicting a rollback in Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) regulations and litigation. Trump is expected to dismiss CFPB Director Rohit Chopra after his inauguration, allowing for a potential reversal of recent rules such as capping late fees for credit cards.
Credit Acceptance, along with other consumer lending companies like Synchrony Financial and Bread Financial, saw their shares surge on speculation that a Trump administration would be more business-friendly and ease regulatory burdens on the industry. Investors anticipate that a lighter regulatory environment could boost profitability and growth prospects for these firms.
