Trump elected US president in stunning comeback * Dollar climbs, Treasury yields hit four-month highs * U.S. stock futures jump, European stocks rally * Mexican peso hits two-year low (Updates throughout) By Dhara Ranasinghe LONDON, Nov 6 (Reuters) - Major stock markets around the world rallied on Wednesday, while bitcoin hit a record high and the dollar was set for its biggest one-day jump since early 2023 as Republican Donald Trump was elected U.S. president. U.S. Treasury yields meanwhile rose to their highest levels since July as bond investors bet a Trump presidency could usher in tax cuts and tariff hikes that boost the deficit and inflation. Trump, 78, recaptured the White House on Wednesday by securing more than the 270 Electoral College votes needed to win the presidency, Edison Research projected, following a campaign of dark rhetoric that deepened the polarization in the country. U.S. S&P and Nasdaq futures jumped more than 2% , and those tracking the small cap Russell 2000 soared 6.2%. The dollar index rallied 1.4% and was set for its best day since March 2023. Japan's Nikkei surged over 2.5% as the yen slid . The rally in U.S. stock futures and signs of a decisive result cheered equity markets, with European shares up more than 1% as stock investors put aside worries about the impact of potentially higher tariffs for now. It was a different story in emerging markets, where Mexico's peso sank to its weakest level in over two years. "The market is definitely moving in line with the Trump playbook; stocks and small caps, in particular, are higher on the idea that Trump will be good for U.S. companies," said Seema Shah, chief global strategist for Principal Asset Management in London. "Across emerging markets, you can see China and Europe are struggling with the idea that they could face higher tariffs, and U.S. bond yields higher with expectations for a higher fiscal deficit and inflation." BONDS DISCONNECT  Concern that higher tariffs under a Trump presidency could deal the region's economy a fresh blow pushed the euro down 1.6% to $1.074, with the currency set for its biggest daily fall since March 2020, outpacing a 1.2% fall in sterling.German two-year bond yields fell 11 basis points to 2.19% , while money markets priced in lower European Central Bank rates. "For European businesses, Trump´s return to the White House would mean considerable trade policy and geopolitical uncertainty, with negative implications for growth on the continent," said Berenberg chief economist Holger Schmieding. In contrast, U.S. borrowing costs rose. The 10-year Treasury yield jumped to a four-month high of around 4.47%, from 4.279%, breaking last week's top of 4.388%. Two-year yields climbed to 4.31%, from 4.189% late in New York. While markets were still confident the Federal Reserve would cut interest rates by 25 basis points on Thursday , futures for next year eased into the red with December down 9 ticks. "The big challenge for markets is that if you do see tariffs come through you need to balance the short-term nature of inflation risks with the medium-term aspect of lower growth," said Justin Onuekwusi, chief investment officer at investment firm St. James's Place. "The market appears to be thinking about inflation right now." CURRENCY WINNERS AND LOSERS Bitcoin emerged as one of the clear winners of the day. The crypto currency climbed to a record high of $75,397 and was last up 7% on the day. Trump is seen as more actively supportive of cryptocurrencies than Harris. The dollar meanwhile jumped 1.5% to 154.03 Japanese yen, , and gained over 1% on the offshore yuan to 7.1834 yuan amid reports Chinese banks were selling dollars to slow the yuan's decline. China is seen on the front line of tariff risk, and its currency in particular is trading on tenterhooks with implied volatility against the dollar around record highs. Chinese stock markets have surged to almost one-month highs as investors expect a meeting of top policymakers in Beijing this week to approve local government debt refinancing and spending. Chinese blue chips lost early gains to turn flat, and Hong Kong stocks fell over 2%. Mexico's peso briefly dropped to as low as 20.8038 per dollar for Electron Cash Wiki the first time since August 2022, more than 3% below its previous close - the biggest such tumble since Mexico's election in summer roiled domestic assets. Ukraine's international sovereign bonds rallied nearly 2 cents, boosted by bets that a second Trump term could lead to a quicker end to Russia's war in Ukraine. Gold prices dipped 0.8% to $2,720 an ounce, off a recent record peak of 2,790.15. The sharp rise in the dollar pressured oil prices, and other commodities, as it makes them more expensive when buying in other currencies.
