The findings from former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation are in and investors think they can boost stock prices.

Stock futures rose on Sunday night after special counsel Robert Mueller's long-awaited investigation did not find enough evidence that President Donald Trump 's 2016 campaign colluded with Russia, according to Attorney General William Barr.

Mueller's investigation had been a lingering concern for investors as it could have hindered Trump's efforts to further cut taxes and further ease regulations on corporations. The news removes a worry for Wall Street and can help the administration focus on more pressing issues for the market, such as striking a trade deal with China or even working with Democrats on an infrastructure plan.

Investors across the world worried the probe could also bring down Trump himself by potentially leading to his impeachment. Now, Wall Street can remove one block from the proverbial wall of worry and eye the ongoing U.S.-China trade talks. China and the U.S. are expected to strike a deal sometime in April. Sentiment around the negotiations improved this year to help lift stocks to within striking distance of their record highs set last year. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Saturday that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer were headed to Beijing for further talks on Thursday.

The spread between the 3-month Treasury bill and the 10-year note went negative on Friday for the first time in more than a decade. Investors consider this to be a signal that a recession may be coming soon.

I find the fact that a sitting president was plausibly investigatived for colluding with the enemy to be disturbing. They used to be shot at sunrise as a traitor. Miss those days.
