President Trump has posted a new announcement on Truth Social, the social media platform. He wrote:
“RT @realDonaldTrump When Foreign Companies who are building extremely complex products, machines, and various other “things,” come into the United States with massive Investments, I want them to bring their people of expertise for a period of time to teach and train our people how to make these very unique and complex products, as they phase out of our Country, and back into their land. If we didn’t do this, all of that massive Investment will never come in the first place — Chips, Semiconductors, Computers, Ships, Trains, and so many other products that we have to learn from others how to make, or, in many cases, relearn, because we used to be great at it, but not anymore. For example, Shipbuilding, where we used to build a Ship a day and now, we barely build a Ship a year. I don’t want to frighten off or disincentivize Investment into America by outside Countries or Companies. We welcome them, we welcome their employees, and we are willing to proudly say we will learn from them, and do even better than them at their own “game,” sometime into the not too distant future!”
How Will Trump’s Statement Affect the Stock Market?
This latest post has the potential to affect the stock market. That’s because Donald Trump’s statement could positively impact the stock market by encouraging foreign investment and expertise in the U.S., potentially benefiting companies like Cisco and Intel through enhanced technological capabilities and partnerships. The emphasis on learning from foreign companies might boost investor confidence in the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund, as it suggests a commitment to revitalizing U.S. manufacturing and technology sectors. However, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited might face mixed reactions, as increased U.S. self-sufficiency could eventually lead to reduced reliance on foreign semiconductor manufacturers.
Here are some of the stocks that might be affected:
Cisco ((CSCO)),
Intel ((INTC)),
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited ((TSM)),
Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLI)),
Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLK)).
