Donald Trump rang the opening bell of the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday, announcing his plans to win the election and strengthen America's dominance in crypto and artificial intelligence.
“We do great things with crypto. “We don't want China or anybody else to lead — we want to be the leader,” Trump told CNBC's Jim Cramer.
Trump has stated that the United States aims to lead in artificial intelligence, indicating that significant energy investments are necessary to secure this position.
Generating twice as much energy as the country currently has is critical to leadership in AI, he said, a goal the US will achieve.
The event also saw Trump named Time magazine's 2024 Person of the Year, recognizing his political revival and economic vision.
Trump was joined by Vice President-elect JD Vance and key Cabinet nominees, including Treasury pick Scott Bessant and Commerce pick Howard Lutnick.
Trump has outlined an economic agenda focused on tax cuts and deregulation, promising to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% and boost domestic job creation.
The Wall Street crowd greeted Trump with chants of “America” as he appeared on a trading platform reflecting market optimism following his election victory.
