While Democrats and the corporate media have fixated on the stock market in recent weeks, they’ve largely ignored the even more important economic trend that is redefining the country’s future – trillions of dollars in new investment in the United States thanks to President Donald Trump’s bold trade, energy, and regulatory agenda.
Just this week, technology giant Nvidia announced that it will be manufacturing AI supercomputers in the United States for the first time. The company says it plans to build more than one million square feet of warehouse space for the endeavor.
Just hours after that announcement, Japanese vehicle manufacturer Honda also confirmed that it plans to expand U.S. vehicle production by as much as 30 percent to avoid Trump’s tariffs on auto imports – a clear example of the tariffs working as intended. Honda’s next-generation Civic hybrid, which was initially slated to be produced in Mexico, will now be made in Indiana.
The number of companies making major announcements like these is growing by the day and began before Trump even took office in January. “We have, I would say, more than $7 trillion now… of investments coming in,” Trump said during a press conference on April 9. “Apple is coming in for $500 billion alone. We have other companies coming in with massive numbers.”
As Trump alluded to, Apple has made one of the biggest investments in America to date. CEO Tim Cook said the company is “bullish” on the United States and that he foresees the $500 billion investment as part of “an extraordinary new chapter in the history of American innovation.”
“From doubling our Advanced Manufacturing Fund, to building advanced technology in Texas, we’re thrilled to expand our support for American manufacturing,” Cook announced. The company specifically plans to build “a new advanced manufacturing facility in Houston to produce servers that support Apple Intelligence” as well as a new “academy in Michigan to train the next generation of U.S. manufacturers.” It will also invest in research and development projects.
Meanwhile, Japanese company SoftBank pledged last December to invest $100 billion in the United States. As noted by the Associated Press, this is double the $50 billion investment promised following Trump’s first victory in 2016. “This is the beginning of [a] golden age,” CEO Masayoshi Son stated in January 2025, following the announcement of a $500 billion artificial intelligence investment fund involving SoftBank, Open AI, and Oracle.
Following Trump’s threats to place tariffs on semiconductor chips, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) also committed to a $100 billion investment in March, as reported by Newsweek.
“The new TSMC investments will fund three new chip fabrication plants, two advanced packaging facilities, and a new research and design center,” Newsweek reported. “This brings the company’s total investment in Phoenix, Arizona, to $165 billion – the largest foreign direct investment in U.S. history.”
Chairman C.C. Wei directly cited Trump’s first term in office as the catalyst behind the major investment. “Back in 2020, thanks to President Trump’s vision and support, we embarked on our journey of establishing advanced chip manufacturing in the United States. This vision is now a reality,” he stated in a news release.
The investment is expected to create tens of thousands of construction jobs in the short run and similar amounts of tech manufacturing jobs in the long run.
But it’s not just consumer products that will soon be manufactured in the United States instead of abroad. Swiss pharmaceutical company Novartis has also unveiled plans to invest $23 billion in new American facilities. The company specifically “plans to build six new manufacturing plants, some of which will make raw pharmaceutical ingredients, as well as a new research and development site in San Diego, California” and expand several other facilities, according to an April 10 report from Reuters.
Novartis CEO Vas Narasimhan directly attributed the announcement to a positive “regulatory environment” brought on by Trump’s return to the Oval Office. “These investments reflect the pro-innovation policy and regulatory environment in the U.S. that supports our ability to find the next medical breakthroughs for patients,” Narasimhan stated.
In fact, so many pharmaceutical companies are investing in the United States that European companies are reportedly concerned about a massive “exodus,” as corporations look to relocate to America. “E.U. pharma firms have called on the European Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen, to push for ‘rapid and radical action’ to mitigate the ‘risk of exodus’ to the US after a meeting in Brussels,” The Guardian reported.
American pharmaceutical companies are also planning to reinvest at home; in March, Johnson & Johnson “announced manufacturing, research and development, and technology investments of more than $55 billion in the United States over the next four years.”
Company leaders said President Trump’s first term in office, particularly the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, played a role in their decision.
Planned investments include “a high-tech facility in North Carolina,” and “three new advanced manufacturing facilities,” according to a company news release. Johnson & Johnson will also expand “several existing sites across the Company’s Innovative Medicine and MedTech businesses.”
The new North Carolina facility will employ 5,000 construction workers and 500 permanent positions, the company announced.
“President Trump will stop at nothing to restore American manufacturing and bring jobs back where they belong — right here in the U.S.,” the White House stated in a news release.
The ongoing investments show that companies are optimistic about a revival in American manufacturing and the continued growth of the economy – despite some temporary downturns in the stock market. Trump’s plans to revitalize American industry are already paying off and are set to continue to generate even greater returns for decades to come.

Actually, after yesterday’s announcements, the number if now closer to $8 trillion in new investments.
Congress needs to step up their activity on the reconciliation bill to 1) make the 2017 tax cuts permanent and add the other tax cuts Trump has committed to, as well as 2) slash government spending to reflect not only all the savings DOGE has identified but also undo the massive ramp up in spending from the Biden Spend-O-Rama years.
The latest from Congress is they are now targeting the end of July or early August as the earliest they anticipate they can deliver a bill to President Trump for his signature. A few members were even hinting at maybe Labor Day. Which is of course ridiculous, as NO Democrats are involved in this entire process. Just last week, Congress was talking about getting it all done and delivered to Trump by Memorial Day. Now we’ve apparently and once again slipped months for no valid reason.
This is how Republicans in Congress end up handing control of Congress, or at least one chamber of Congress, back to the Democrats in the midterms. Congress is playing the same game that McConnell and Ryan played in 2017 with devastating election results. This time around, most of the issues are in the Senate, as the McConnell clique is dragging things out unnecessarily. There is simply no excuse for not being able to get what is a very simple, straightforward bill done and to the POTUS by Memorial Day. The American people need to light a fire under the a$$es of Congress to get this done.
The only one besides every democrat who is against these investments is our pretty boy in CA. He is taking president Trump to court because of the tariffs. Go right ahead pretty boy none of these companies mentioned will open a facility in your state. Like always he is a day late and a dollar short. Tariffs work pretty boy. You got bad advice. We used to make everything in America till everything was outsourced to China and other SE Asia countries. We the people objected but the people went silent. Not this time. Made in America is a positive step next to lowering tariffs. Why are we on the right even give a voice to this loser. His name hadn’t been in the news lately? Then you have to create your own. President Trumps plans are working. 130 countries want to talk about tariffs. Even Europe has come across with a proposal. And many Asian companies are investing in America. What I really would like to see is steel mills opening up and a car parts company returning to the US. Pretty boy should fight for that not the destruction of America.
It’s good news proving Trumps agenda is working, which is exactly why the media won’t report it.
DJT knows we MUST get back to domestic production of medicines, weapons, ships, etc. We’ve been dependent on others for far too long. If an emergency or war should occur, we cannot rely on anyone but ourselves!
President Trump is giving our country hope, while demented Biden is still lying and encouraging treasonous behavior. Biden needs to be investigated — he has tragically harmed this country — the damage will continue for decades.
This is an excellent start for the recovery of the economy and becoming competitive with the rest of the world. Now, the real question is “will these companies actually do as they have stated?”. That remains to be seen.
Thanks President Trump bold plan to bring back business which was originated from US. is coming back home to employ Americans!
The biased media fails the American public with its not reporting, biased trash, lies, highlighting the losing and diminishing democrats, etc. The AMAC ha identified, and provided a thorough report, and kept multitudes like myself, informed and importantly reminded of the promises and achievements attributed to President Trump in the forefront. It is not about politics (we are learning of the extent, depth of lies, criminality, and the appearance of the demo twerps to harp their dirt. GOOD – we witness a large demise of that sick party, hourly.
excellent helpful well done article Thanks to AMAC & the author
Remember when some economic illiterate, OBonzo, chided Trump about bringing manufacturing jobs back to the US?
The “anointed one” said, “What are you gonna do, wave a magic wand?”
This from a clown???? who couldn’t make a lemonade stand profitable.
Funny how the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) NEVER mention these promises of massive investments from overseas, which are a direct result of the tariffs implemented by Mr. Trump. All we ever hear from Schumer and Hakeem and the rest of the anti-American Communists in our Congress is how Trump is destroying the country and is going to take away everyone’s Social Security, Medicare,, and Medicaid. The Democrats have nothing to go with but lies piled on top of more lies, and that is all they are giving us, aided and abetted by their media whores. It is just so pathetic how many people listen to this garbage and believe it, with the actual truth right there for anyone who wants to seek it.
Democrats will find a judge to block it! We cannot have economic prosperity in this country! We’re trying to destroy it.
Great news, but I’m concerned about NEWSMAX and/or RAV reports yesterday that China has halted rare mineral exports to the US. China also refines these minerals, which are critical to manufacturing. I’m sure President Trump is aware of this, and I sure hope that he has a plan to import minerals from elsewhere and refine them.
The Marxist/democrats are probably thinking: why the heck is he doing this. He (President Trump) is destroying our plan to destroy America. Their hair pulling continues.
MAGA!
AMERICA FIRST!
PROMISES KEPT!
7 + TRILLION DOLLARS IN RE-INVESTMENT IN THE USA!
BRAVO! GO TRUMP GO!
WHO CARES WHAT THE COMMUNIST DEMOCRATS SAY OR THINK.
THE DEMOCRATS NEARLY RUINED OUR GREAT NATION!
MAGA! MAGA!MAGA!
Ive invested in Nvadia & plan Investo QQQ Fund
So far we have companies pledging to build in the U.S. The actual doing of it takes time to get to that point. Hopefully, it will become more than just promises. If Dems win control in mid-terms and in 2028 the promises may be abandoned to back to business as usual.
These investments by foreigners are not exactly the stuff American dreams are made of and the loyalty to America is not there. Are they to be allowed to own the land for these locations? Are they going to be required to hire Americans? I’ve seen first hand with the huge expansion for a Korean battery plant in Commerce, GA, what happens when they come in, clear the land of the forest, bring in the foreign workers, change the main street to little Korea, and change a quiet little country town into a nightmare of cheap housing for the new workers. Sorry but I’m not enthusiastic at all about this mass foreign money coming into America.
Does anyone know if any ground has been broken? Is there a timeframe for when these new factories will be built? Is there a job board? I would like to apply. Any links or information would be appreciated.
Investments in the USA are safe as long as the GOP is in power. If the Democratic Party finds a way to steal back power, everyone is doomed to failure, poverty, and misery.
The best news in this article is massive investment in the U.S. by Pharmaceutical Companies. Remember during Covid that we were getting prescription medicine from China? How scary is that. We were relying on our most powerful enemy for medicine!
For all the nay sayers that believe that manufacturing will never return to America, this article is one of many that shows they are wrong. Seven TRILLION worth of manufacturing facility building and equiping, followed by the working Americns populating the halls and floors of those sites will go a long way toward insuring the National Security of our Republic.
The US gets all of these manufacturers over here and gets all of the workers unionized and it will still be more profitable to offshore finished products even with the tariffs. Most would still rather sit at home instead of making 100-150,000 per year.
This is junk news. There are no facts here showing $7 trillion in investments, just that Trump is making this claim. The man has been as salesman for all of his life, and exaggeration is is stock and trade. I can’t believe that people actually trust his unverified numbers.
Honda had announced their expansion when Biden was President, the Story circulating about Ford Motor Company expanding was said to be completely false by Ford’s CEO. Last week, Stellantis, maker of the Dodge Ram is laying off thousands of workers in the US.
These NVIDIA Plants’ construction ALSO Started when Biden was President! That’s why they already started prodcution on Plants in Arizona that took more than 3 years to build. The Plants in Texas broke Ground in 2024 and if you read carefully you will find the following: According to an analysis from the Yale Budget Lab, tariffs could cause 740,000 people to lose their jobs across the US economy by the end of the year.
Of course there’s a few other items that were true in this heavily slanted article: Among Them this: While Apple’s investment would be the largest it has made, the company made similar commitments under both President Joe Biden in 2021 of $430bn and during Trump’s first term in 2018 of $350bn.
This entire article is twisted up in Lies, with a few truths thrown in the mix…. #Talibangelicals Love this stuff though, and are jumping for Joy now that 5 million people are losing Medicare in order to pay for Tax Cuts for Billionaires. It’s just wonderfu! And no, I am not a Democrat, I am a former Republican who got tired of all the Thieves elected by Repuiblicans. Look at our representatives and senators, they won’t even face their constituents in a town hall anymore…..for good reason.
The numbers in the article don’t even add up to $2 trillion. Where is the rest of the wonderful investment and why isn’t it announced?
