Now that Donald Trump is starting his second term as President, reviewing sector performance during his first term is an interesting exercise. Some of the results may come as a surprise. Additionally, there is reason to believe that one sector that underperformed in Trump 1.0 could perform much better under Trump 2.0.
Below, I’ll provide a breakdown of the best and worst-performing sectors in Trump’s first term and see how they compare to the Biden administration. I'll also share where things could be different this time. I will suggest investments that could benefit significantly. Returns will use the State Street SPDR sector ETFs as their basis and range from the president's first day in office to his last day.
