63. Elephant in the Stock Market: Trump Tariffs, Tax Cuts, & Immigration Policy Implications

Now that the U.S. election results are in, we’re discussing the “elephant in the room” - that is, the implications of potential Trump administration policies on the stock market. We’re focusing on tariffs, immigration, tax cuts, deregulation, and the Fed’s role. How will these factors influence market dynamics, inflation, and economic growth? What does it all mean for self-directed investors?
We’ll also define what all these terms mean to help you stay aware of false claims you see on social media (so many videos about tariffs that are getting it wrong). And we’ll discuss the risks of stagflation (new vocab term!) and the historical resilience of the S&P 500. As we all know by now, time in the market is your best strategy and we always encourage our listeners to stay informed and invested for long-term success.
Talk to a financial advisor or at least do a little more investigating before making any rash decisions with your portfolio. We’re always here to educate** and make you fin-fluent, not fin-fluenced.
<3 It's also important for us to say that we are very sympathetic to how these policies can potentially impact human beings and the environment. Our goal in this discussion is to help you be an informed investor so that you can best take care of future you and make your own educated decisions on what you want to do with your money. <3
