The White House has rolled out a new online hub highlighting a surge of announced investments pouring into the U.S. economy since President Donald Trump began his second term in office.
The website showcases 49 significant investment commitments from a broad spectrum of industries—ranging from technology and pharmaceuticals to energy and real estate.
In the tech world, Apple and Nvidia each unveiled plans to pour $500 billion into U.S. operations. A separate $500 billion commitment is being made through Stargate, a collaborative initiative between OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle. Meanwhile, IBM has pledged a $150 billion investment of its own.
The pharmaceutical industry also figures prominently in the list, with several major players committing tens of billions of dollars in investment. Among them:
• Johnson & Johnson: $55 billion• Genentech (Roche): $50 billion• Eli Lilly & Company: $27 billion• Novartis: $23 billion• AbbVie: $10 billion• Merck: $9 billion
Major investments from other sectors include $21 billion from automotive powerhouse Hyundai, $20 billion from DAMAC Properties in real estate, and $25 billion jointly announced by ADQ and Energy Capital Partners.
While addressing a gathering of business leaders on Wednesday, Trump said he expects total investments during his second term to cross the $8 trillion mark within a matter of weeks.“We have a total of close to $8 trillion all told,” he continued. “And there’s never been anything like that in this country; we’ve never had anything close. I would say, if you looked at the last administration, probably for four years, they did maybe less than $1 [trillion], and we’ve done almost $8 [trillion].”
Trump’s signature economic policies—tariff enforcement, sweeping deregulation, and major tax cuts—are widely seen as key drivers behind the tidal wave of new capital since January.
During remarks at the White House on Wednesday, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang directly credited Trump’s role in bringing advanced manufacturing back to U.S. soil, as the company prepares to roll out a next-generation 70-pound processor.
“We’re going to build NVIDIA’s technology, the next generation of that, all here in the United States,” he said.
“Without the president’s leadership, his policies, his support, and, very importantly, his strong encouragement… frankly, manufacturing in the United States wouldn’t have accelerated to this pace,” Jensen added.
