  • The start of a new presidency often brings fresh energy - and uncertainty - to the financial markets. With Donald Trump's inauguration, investors are bracing for significant policy shifts. This could mean changes in taxes, spending, and trade agreements - all factors that markets may already be reacting to or will soon begin pricing in.

The article from FXStreet discusses the potential impacts of Donald Trump's inauguration on investment portfolios in 2025. It highlights that Trump's policies, which include tax cuts, deregulation, and protectionist trade measures, could lead to a volatile market environment. Investors might expect a boost in sectors like defense, infrastructure, and energy due to increased government spending and deregulation. Conversely, sectors like technology and renewable energy might face challenges due to potential policy shifts away from environmental regulations and international trade agreements. The article also notes the possibility of increased market uncertainty due to Trump's unpredictable policy announcements and the potential for trade wars, which could affect global markets. It advises investors to diversify their portfolios, consider hedging strategies, and stay informed about policy changes to navigate the potential economic turbulence.
