The day after the 2016 election, the country is look ahead. Hillary Clinton delivered her concession¹ speech in New York on Wednesday, urging young girls to continue to pursue their dreams. At the White House, president Obama urged unity² and respect as he looked to a peaceful transition of power.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump³'s presidential victory set off protests early Wednesday in Berkeley, California. Demonstrators marched to the streets chanting "not my president."

Firefighters controlled a large fire at a complex of abandoned warehouse⁴ in Wilmington, Delaware. About 250 firefighters and emergency personnel responded to the 4-alarm blaze.

And the markets ran a upswing after Tuesday's election, moving solidly higher in the mid-day trading on Wal Street. Markets were jittery⁵ over the prespect of a Trump White House in recent weeks, but declines in overnight trading quickly reversed.
