President Trump has posted a new announcement on Truth Social, the social media platform. He wrote:
“Trump address ignites hope for future as ‘gangbuster’ economy forecasted for 2026:”
How Will Trump’s Statement Affect the Stock Market?
This latest post has the potential to affect the stock market. That’s because Optimistic rhetoric about a “gangbuster” 2026 economy can boost risk appetite and drive investors into cyclicals and growth names, potentially lifting Amazon and the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund on expectations of stronger consumer spending and e‑commerce activity. Expectations of robust capital investment and infrastructure demand could benefit Caterpillar and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund, as investors price in higher orders for machinery and industrial equipment. A brighter macro outlook may also support JPMorgan Chase & Co. and the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund via anticipated loan growth, increased deal activity, and a steeper yield curve, though the actual impact will depend on whether policy and data ultimately confirm the upbeat forecasts.
Here are some of the stocks that might be affected:
Amazon.Com, Inc. ((AMZN)),
Caterpillar ((CAT)),
JPMorgan Chase & Co. ((JPM)),
Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLF)),
Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLI)),
Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLY)).
