$10 Trillion in Capital Flows to US?
• Armstrong EconomicsPresident Donald Trump completed a successful tour of the Middle East that resulted in foreign investments surmounting to over $3.2 trillion. President Trump believes that $10 trillion in capital will flow to US, a staggering amount of money, equal to over half of the DIJA's entire market cap. The $10 trillion figure remains aspirational rather than set in stone. American manufacturing declined under the last administration, but we are looking at a sharp uptick over the next few years.
The White House separately publicly disclosed $5.1 trillion in US investments, $2.1 trillion of which were derived from corporate investments and the rest from foreign capital. This falls short of Trump's $10 trillion figure but still marks an impressive injection of capital into the US economy.
Technology is at the forefront, with investments pouring into Artificial Intelligence (AI). DataVolt, Humain, and G42, and other Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds plan to assist in funding AI development in the USA. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) pledged $1.4 trillion into US tech, AI, industry, and space. Saudi Arabia is also investing in American AI, along with energy, defense, and infrastructure, all to the tune of $600 billion. Qatar is sending $1.2 trillion to the US for developments in tech, infrastructure, and defense.
