Returns from emerging markets are expected to decline in 2025 due to slowing global growth, potential trade tariffs, and a stronger U.S. dollar under a Trump presidency, according to UBS. The firm downgraded Taiwan and Singapore to Underweight, citing high local stock valuations and risks from tariff wars. While remaining positive on China’s fundamentals, UBS takes a cautious stance on India due to expensive valuations and ordinary performance.
Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) are challenging the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) recent lawsuit, claiming it undermines the Constitution by attempting to reshape the industry through regulatory means. The FTC alleges that PBMs inflate insulin costs, while the PBMs argue they lower net drug prices and shift blame to manufacturers. They contend that the FTC's actions infringe on private contracts and assert excessive executive power, with the case set for a hearing in August 2025.
The right to repair movement is gaining momentum amid political shifts, with advocates like Kyle Wiens emphasizing bipartisan support for repairability across various sectors. While federal progress has been slow, local and state efforts continue to thrive, bolstered by international regulations promoting device interoperability. The potential for increased competition and consumer-focused policies under the new administration could further enhance repair initiatives, encouraging a culture of maintenance over disposal.
UBS analysts warn that Trump's housing plan, which includes transforming federal land into homes and offering tax incentives for homeownership, may inadvertently raise home prices and mortgage rates due to limited infrastructure and increased buyer competition. Additionally, proposed deregulation and immigration policies could further complicate the housing market, exacerbating the existing supply shortage and driving up construction costs. The outlook for buyers remains uncertain, heavily influenced by the Federal Reserve's stance on interest rates.

The recent appointment of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) by Donald Trump has triggered an 87.77% surge in the DOGE memecoin. In related news, Trump proposed replacing federal income tax with import tariffs during a podcast interview, while inflation data and Federal Reserve rate decisions continue to shape economic expectations.
U.S. markets retreated after a week of postelection gains, with the S&P 500 down 0.29% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 0.86%. While some stocks, like Tesla, continue to rise, early winners from the "Trump trade" are losing momentum, reflecting a potential shift in investor sentiment as economic data looms. Bitcoin briefly reached $90,000 but retreated to around $87,942.05, while Netflix's ad-supported tier gained 70 million users globally.
Donald Trump's second term is expected to accelerate healthcare policy changes similar to those in his first term, focusing on cutting costs associated with the Affordable Care Act and potentially reviving controversial Medicaid eligibility requirements. Major healthcare associations have expressed readiness to collaborate with the new administration, while some insurer stocks rose, indicating Wall Street's optimism about a friendlier regulatory environment.
Tech leaders have expressed their readiness to collaborate with the incoming Trump administration, emphasizing the importance of maintaining U.S. leadership in AI and technology. Notable figures like OpenAI's Sam Altman and Google’s Sundar Pichai highlighted the potential for innovation, while concerns linger over the previous administration's regulatory scrutiny of tech companies. A shift towards a more tech-friendly approach could lead to fewer antitrust actions against major firms.
Trump's return to the White House is expected to bring significant changes to public health insurance programs, potentially increasing the uninsured rate and imposing new barriers to abortion access. His administration may target Medicaid for spending cuts and could challenge the Affordable Care Act's consumer protections, while also elevating vaccine skepticism through advisers like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The future of enhanced premium subsidies for Obamacare remains uncertain, with potential implications for enrollment and affordability.
