We are deep into the first week of the new Trump administration, and the president has made a big push to tackle issues like tariffs, tech, and immigration. President Trump has signed a number of executive orders this week impacting immigration in the United States, spoke to global leaders and corporate executives at The World Economic Forum, and is maintaining his stance on imposing tariffs on Canada. How will this all impact the market and your bottom line? We get into it.
On this week’s special episode of Capitol Gains, anchors Madison Mills, Julie Hyman, and Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul break down everything you need to know about Trump’s first few days back in the White House and how the market is already beginning to react to his policies.
The Capitol Gains team also takes a look at President Trump’s comments from The World Economic Forum on tariffs and how investors should be reacting to what was said.
Plus, Wharton School Professor Zeke Hernandez joins the show to discuss immigration in the United States and how President Trump’s executive orders on the subject will affect the economy moving forward.
