Mastercard (MA) stock surged to a new 52-week high following Donald Trump’s presidential election victory, driven by investor expectations of favorable economic policies and increased consumer spending. Piper Sandler reaffirmed its bullish stance on the stock, raising its price target to $575, while analysts anticipate a surge in transaction volumes fueled by Trump’s proposed tax cuts and deregulation agenda. Mastercard’s focus on financial technology and commercial payments is expected to benefit from these trends, potentially leading to significant growth in the coming years.
