The Muon g-2 experiment at FERMILAB has confirmed the muon anomalous magnetic moment anomaly, with an error bar 15% smaller and a different central value compared with the previous Brookhaven result. The combined results from FERMILAB and Brookhaven show a difference with theory at a significance of 4.2σ, strongly indicating the presence of new physics. In light of this new result, we discuss a Two Higgs Doublet model augmented by an Abelian gauge symmetry that can simultaneously accommodate a light dark matter candidate and (g−2)μ, in agreement with existing bounds.
