5. SOUNDBITE (English) Carsten Brzeski Chief Economist ING DIBA Bank:
"I think markets were totally caught by surprise. Markets had expected Mrs Clinton to win especially given the developments over the last days and weeks, and you do see that markets again were on the wrong side as with Brexit. I think the most feasible thing right now will be what will the Fed will do. I think we have already seen overnight that expectations of a rate hike have been postponed again into 2017. The question is if Mrs Yellen will stay on because there has also been criticism from Mr Trump on Mrs Yellen so a lot of uncertainty about the upcoming monetary policy in the US."

"I think that Trump is really bigger than Brexit cause honestly without harming my British friends, the US is much more important than the British economy. It used to be the leader of the free world Mr Trump is for real and Brexit uncertainty can last for years, but Mr Trump is here."
