This week in MoneyWeek: what will President Trump mean for investors?

In this week’s MoneyWeek magazine: Donald Trump; betting on an oil-price rise; and how to build the perfect buy-and-hold portfolio.

828-CS-1200

It can't have failed to come to your notice that today is the day that Donald Trump becomes president of the USA. There's been an awful lot of wailing and rending of garments. Fears of a Trumpocalypse and the end of Western civilisation. Prophesies not just of trade wars, but real wars too. But when it comes down to it, what we want to know is will his policies work and what will they mean for investors? Rupert Foster attempts to answer those questions in this week's cover story, and picks ten stocks to buy if you want to play the "Trump bump". Find out what they are with a subscription to the magazine now.

Ben studied modern languages at London University's Queen Mary College. After dabbling unhappily in local government finance for a while, he went to work for The Scotsman newspaper in Edinburgh. The launch of the paper's website, scotsman.com, in the early years of the dotcom craze, saw Ben move online to manage the Business and Motors channels before becoming deputy editor with responsibility for all aspects of online production for The Scotsman, Scotland on Sunday and the Edinburgh Evening News websites, along with the papers' Edinburgh Festivals website.

Ben joined MoneyWeek as website editor in 2008, just as the Great Financial Crisis was brewing. He has written extensively for the website and magazine, with a particular emphasis on alternative finance and fintech, including blockchain and bitcoin. 

As an early adopter of bitcoin, Ben bought when the price was under $200, but went on to spend it all on foolish fripperies.
