Surging stock market, Trump policies boost wealth for top 1%

The surge in the stock market, highlighted by Elon Musk's SpaceX becoming the first trillion-dollar company, underscores a broader trend in the U.S. where wealth has been increasingly concentrated among the top 1% since 2022. This trend is bolstered by favorable economic policies under Trump administration, which have disproportionately benefited the wealthy. This wealth disparity raises questions about economic fairness and the future of social mobility, as the gap between the richest and the rest of the population continues to widen.
