President-elect Donald Trump is set to ring the bell at the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday morning, a source familiar with the matter told The Post, weeks after his landslide election win fueled by voters’ concerns about the economy.
The ringing of the bell in the morning signals the opening of the day’s trading — an honor bestowed in the past on celebrities and US presidents alike — and will coincide with the once and future president being declared Time magazine’s “Person of the Year,” according to reports.
The event will undoubtedly have symbolic personal significance for Trump, a native New Yorker and businessman who made his fortune in the city.
