Trump’s $1,000 baby accounts: what it means for markets President Trump’s “Trump Accounts” proposal would give every American newborn a $1,000 investment account placed in a stock market index fund, managed by the child’s guardians. The plan is part of the Big Beautiful Bill and has support from CEOs including Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, who called it “a seed fund for America’s next generation.”
If passed, the plan could drive consistent inflows into U.S. equity markets and benefit platforms like Robinhood, Vanguard, and BlackRock. Robinhood’s CEO will attend the White House event announcing the plan.
Robinhood shares are trading near multi-year highs, boosted by strong earnings and the acquisition of crypto exchange Bitstamp.
Shares also rallied recently on hopes the company would be added to the S&P 500, an inclusion that typically attracts passive fund inflows. While it wasn’t selected in the latest rebalancing, continued growth keeps it on watch for future inclusion.
