From Trade Fairs to Tariffs: The Impact of Trump's Presidential Inauguration on Markets and Trade

Ballestas Group

This week was marked by Monday's holiday in commemoration of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, which reduced market activity. However, the holiday coincided with Donald Trump's inauguration as president. From his first day in office, Trump implemented a series of executive actions that impacted both financial markets and the global political landscape.

President Trump's inaugural address was received with some initial calm by investors. Although he addressed sensitive issues such as immigration and energy independence, his tone was not as aggressive as feared. Among his priorities, he highlighted the need to reduce state bureaucracy, combat inflation and promote policies to ensure US energy independence. However, the relief was short-lived, as hours later he announced 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, citing concerns related to immigration and border control. This weakened the currencies of both countries and generated uncertainty about trade relations in North America.
