July 14 (Reuters) -
Donald Trump was shot in the ear during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday in what the authorities said they were treating as an assassination attempt. Trump's campaign said he was fine after the incident.
Here are investors' reactions to the shooting.

“I think it probably increases his chances, and we will probably see some haven flows in the morning.”
RONG REN GOH, PORTFOLIO MANAGER, EASTSPRING INVESTMENTS, SINGAPORE
"The shooting is likely to bolster Trump’s support, and only further augments the positive momentum he has been enjoying following the Presidential debates two weeks ago.
"The market reaction function to a Trump presidency has been characterized by a stronger U.S. dollar and a steepening of the U.S. Treasuries curve, so we might observe some of that this coming week if his election odds are assessed to have further improved following this incident."
