US Foreign Direct Investment Sees Significant Drop Amid Tariff Concerns

Reported about 16 hours ago

Foreign direct investment (FDI) in the U.S. plummeted to $52.8 billion in the first quarter, down from $79.9 billion the previous quarter, largely due to uncertainties surrounding President Trump's tariff policies. This decline has also contributed to a record high U.S. current account deficit of $450.2 billion. Economists speculated that this drop in FDI might be temporary, as significant investments from foreign companies, particularly in manufacturing, are expected to come online in future quarters.
