One of the most famous politicians in the world, former and possibly future US President Donald Trump, is again in the throes of financial trials. According to the latest analysis by Forbes, Trump's total wealth has decreased by half a billion dollars. The main reason for this decrease is the trade wars that the president himself started and their impact on the market.
Stock markets responded
The tariffs imposed by Trump against various countries of the world, including China and the European Union, were the first to bring "his own man" to the brink. Shares that have been moving downward on US stock exchanges for three days did not bypass companies owned by Trump.
The biggest loser is Trump Media and Technology Group. According to Forbes, the value of this company has fallen from $2.2 billion to $2 billion. That is, $200 million has been "melted" from one asset alone.
Real estate is also losing value
As many know, Trump is known as the "real estate king." However, the value of his shares in this sector has also fallen. This has deprived him of another $90 million in wealth.
Also, according to Forbes, the president's cryptocurrency assets, diversified bonds and stocks continue to fall. These losses are estimated at around $240 million in total.
Political decisions - financial consequences
It can be said that Trump is shaking not only the geopolitical balance with his political actions, but also his personal wealth. His tariff policy directly affected the markets, which ultimately made Trump himself a "victim".
Billionaire's financial moves at risk
It should be noted that Trump is still a billionaire, but if this trend continues, his financial dominance may face even more difficult tests. The thin line between politics and economics has once again become apparent - and this time the "trap" seems to have been created by Trump himself. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
