A Pricey Path to Residency: Trump Administration Unveils $1M Gold Card Visa

  The Trump administration has announced the launch of a new immigration initiative dubbed the Gold Card Visa , a program that grants residency to foreign nationals willing to invest $1 million. Marketed as a fast-track entry into the United States, the visa is designed to attract wealthy investors and entrepreneurs seeking long-term opportunities in the country. Officials describe the program as a way to boost economic growth by channeling foreign capital into American businesses and infrastructure. Critics, however, argue that the policy favors the ultra-rich while sidelining skilled workers and families who lack the financial means to participate. The Gold Card Visa is expected to generate debate over the balance between economic incentives and equitable access to immigration. Supporters see it as a pragmatic move to secure investment, while opponents warn it could deepen inequality in the immigration system.

Wall Street Poised for Gains as U.S.-Britain Trade Deal Nears Completion

Wall Street is set for a higher open as investors react to news that the United States and Britain are on the verge of finalizing a trade agreement. The deal, expected to be announced at 10 a.m. ET, aims to lower tariffs on select goods, marking a significant step in trade relations between the two nations.

Market optimism is reflected in premarket trading, with Dow E-minis rising 0.75%, S&P 500 E-minis up 0.94%, and Nasdaq 100 E-minis climbing 1.32%. The agreement follows a pause in country-specific tariffs imposed by the U.S. last month, signaling a potential shift in trade policy.

Investors are also keeping an eye on semiconductor stocks, which have gained momentum amid reports that the U.S. may ease export restrictions on AI-related chips. Meanwhile, economic data shows a decline in unemployment claims, further boosting market sentiment.

As Wall Street prepares for the official announcement, analysts suggest that this trade deal could serve as a blueprint for future agreements with other global partners. The market’s response will likely depend on the specifics of the deal and its broader implications for international trade.
