Cathie Wood: Donald Trump’s Tariffs Could ‘Free Up’ U.S. Market in 2025
Cathie Wood, founder of ARK Investment Management, sees potential for President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs to catalyze a market transformation. Contrary to prevailing concerns, Wood argues the April 2025 tariff announcements may ultimately reduce trade restrictions.
"This isn’t about building walls," Wood asserted during a May 19 Bloomberg Television interview. The ARK Invest CEO positioned the policy as a potential catalyst for increased market openness across multiple sectors. Her analysis suggests current volatility could mark an inflection point rather than a sustained disruption.
