The financial community will likely oppose President Roosevelt’s nomination as the Republican presidential candidate due to his actions surrounding the Northern Securities Company. However, action against Northern Securities likely prevented speculation and the creation of other securities on a large scale, thus protecting the financial community. Wall Street will oppose Roosevelt but he will be nominated and elected no matter the opposition.
