Successful Trump Supporters: Top Performers of a Era Unveiled
Buckle Up: Investors Shouldn't Ignore the Losing Sectors in Trump's Second Term
Donald Trump is back, baby! On his return to the White House, Trump signed a staggering 100 executive orders, and it's already looking like a charming new chapter for the U.S. markets. However, let's not forget to scrutinize the losers, especially for smart investors like you, dear reader.
During Trump's presence at his second inauguration, the who's who of tech giants – Meta's Zuckerberg, Alphabet's Pichai, Amazon's Bezos, Oracle's Ellison, and Tesla's Musk – were all in attendance. It seems that these tech titans are ready to cash in under Trump's regime, just like Oracle did following their announcement of a $500 million AI investment over the next four years, backed by state power[1]. But what about the sectors that didn't make it to the winner's circle?
According to the multi-family office HQ Trust, certain sectors reacted negatively to Trump's re-election, and those could present intriguing opportunities for investors looking to play the long game[2]. While we don't have specifics on the analysis by the HQ Trust, it's worth considering some sectors that have historically been affected by Trump's policies.
- Semiconductors: Trump's proposed tariffs on semiconductor imports could potentially increase costs for companies heavily reliant on international trade, impacting this industry[3].
- International Trade-Dependent Sectors: Companies dealing heavily in cross-border trade could struggle due to tariffs and trade tensions, especially those importing goods from China[3].
- Inflation-Sensitive Sectors: Trump's economic policies, including tariffs, may lead to inflationary pressures, adversely affecting sectors sensitive to price increases[5].
To shed more light on these underperforming sectors and unearth potential stocks with outperformance potential, don't miss out on the latest issue of €uro am Sonntag – The Financial Newspaper's Extra edition for digital subscribers[2]. Happy investing, folks!
