U.S. stock futures climbed on Monday evening as President Donald Trump took office, signaling a new era of policy changes. Trump reentered the White House on Monday, following the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday closure of U.S. markets.
By 18:58 ET (23:58 GMT), S&P 500 Futures rose 0.6% to 6,066.25 points, Nasdaq 100 Futures gained 0.6% to 21,729.75 points, and Dow Jones Futures climbed 0.6% to 43,943.0 points.
In his inaugural address, Trump emphasized economic growth, national security, and prioritizing domestic interests. He quickly issued executive orders targeting immigration control, environmental deregulation, and increased fossil fuel production, including plans to strengthen U.S.-Mexico border security. These actions highlighted his "America First" approach, promising significant policy shifts.
Investors are adopting a cautious stance as they evaluate the impact of these measures on markets. Analysts anticipate a "wait-and-see" period as the administration's policies take shape.
