FYI: In his first speech as president of the United States, Donald J. Trump declared, “From this day forward, it is going to be only America first, America first.”
If you had taken his words at face value, you might have expected that big American companies that make nearly all of their money in the United States would flourish in a new, America First environment.
But that’s not the way it has turned out, at least not in the stock market so far.
