Trump's First Week Impact on Markets: President Trump's initial week in office saw the S&P 500 reach a record high, driven by his focus on technology, tariffs, energy reform, and immigration. However, experts caution against mixing politics with investment strategies, emphasizing that market forces often outweigh political influences.
Sector Reactions to Policy Changes: The energy sector faced declines due to anticipated lower prices from increased oil and gas supply, while the tech sector benefited from the announcement of an AI project. Immigration reforms may disrupt labor markets, potentially leading to inflationary pressures as employers might need to raise wages to attract workers.
