Massive Foreign And Corporate Investments Flow Into US Under Trump’s Second Term

American economic growth is attracting record-breaking investments as President Donald Trump pushes for a revival of U.S. manufacturing and energy independence. Corporations and global partners are responding with commitments that span high-tech industries and traditional infrastructure.

After a key meeting in Washington between President Trump and UAE national security adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed, the United Arab Emirates announced a long-term investment package worth $1.4 trillion. According to a U.S. official, the funding will support artificial intelligence, semiconductor technology, energy and industrial production in the United States.

Emirati firms are already making moves. One energy company, XRG, which is tied to the state-run Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., confirmed it will expand investment in U.S. natural gas development and related energy infrastructure. Emirates Global Aluminum also has plans to back construction of a new aluminum facility inside the country.

President Trump’s focus on reshoring American jobs has also encouraged Johnson & Johnson to pledge $55 billion in new U.S. investments over four years. A major part of that plan includes the creation of four new manufacturing facilities, one of which has already broken ground in North Carolina.

The site in Wilson, North Carolina, is expected to add 5,000 jobs and help produce advanced medicines including cancer treatments. According to the company, its total U.S. economic impact is projected to surpass $100 billion annually.

Meanwhile, tech and chip manufacturers are lining up with large-scale spending. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company announced an additional $100 billion for its U.S. operations, raising its total to $165 billion. The investment will go toward new chip plants, packaging centers and research hubs.

Apple added to the list with a $500 billion investment plan focused on American operations. SoftBank, which had a direct meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, has committed $100 billion toward artificial intelligence projects in the U.S. Nvidia is also putting forward a multibillion-dollar effort for domestic chip production.

President Trump also implemented a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum imports. The U.S. Department of Commerce has identified Canada, Mexico and Brazil as key sources of those metals.
