Don’t Miss TipRanks’ Half-Year Sale

President Trump has posted a new announcement on Truth Social, the social media platform. He wrote:

“Secretary Wright: “The whole Administration—led by President Trump, is all-in on keeping gasoline prices down, diesel prices down…””

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 about the administration’s commitment to keeping gasoline and diesel prices down could lead to increased market confidence in energy stocks like Chevron, Exxon Mobil Corp., and Valero Energy Corporation, as lower fuel prices may boost demand and profitability. However, the impact on ETFs like Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund, VanEck Oil Services ETF, and Vanguard Energy ETF will depend on the broader market perception of energy sector stability and potential regulatory actions. Investors might anticipate short-term volatility as they assess the administration’s ability to influence fuel prices effectively.

Here are some of the stocks that might be affected:
Chevron ((CVX)),
Exxon Mobil Corp. ((XOM)),
Valero Energy Corporation ((VLO)),
Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund ((XLE)),
VanEck Oil Services ETF ((OIH)),
Vanguard Energy ETF ((VDE)).
