US stocks gained ground Monday as investors wagered that presidential candidate Donald Trump is now more likely to reclaim the White House after an unsuccessful assassination attempt strengthened his chances of victory.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose about 0.4%, closing at a new alltime high above the 40,000 threshold. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) added about 0.3%, just below a record finish, while the techheavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) gained 0.4%.

Stocks are building on a roaring rally as secondquarter results from more big US banks rolled in. Goldman Sachs (GS) reported a profit surge of 150% amid investment banking strength, a sign that Wall Street is rebounding from a twoyear drought. Shares rose about 2.5%. Meanwhile, BlackRock's (BLK) profit beat estimates as assets under management hit a record of $10.6 trillion.

But the market was focused on the potential fallout from the assassination attempt on Trump at a rally on Saturday. Bets ramped up on a win in November's presidential election for the Republican frontrunner, seen as likely to cut taxes, raise trade tariffs, and ease up on regulation.
